LazyCam (Beta) / Re: Issue with offset

Mike,
LC is absolutely brilliant at what it does well but it is far from being perfect.
OK, you have to pay for it but there is a lot of available CAD/CAM software out there that does a much better job with pockets and offsets.
For a while I used the free version of CamBam and once you get used to it's little quirks it makes a great job of creating the offset GCode.
