General Mach Discussion / Why is my cnc cutting my designs half size?????? Newbee question

« on: January 02, 2013, 07:45:20 PM »

Hi
I have just set up a Chinese 6040 cnc( i know its cheap but i just want to try it out,so far i'm hooked  ), it all seems to work great but when i loaded my g-code (from aspire ) the job was 23" x 9" but it cut it out approx half size?
I've been through the set up a couple of times and used the setting that came with the cnc ( which were brief to say the least!  )
Can any one give me some idea of what might be wrong and how to fix it.

Cheers Tony
