Dave,
Depth is difficult to tell with the Traffolite probably 0.2mm but it has gone between 1mm and 1.5mm into the Obechi.
Under normal circumstances the depth can be controlled by altering the power setting or changing the feedrate but this was done with the Engraving / Laser plugin and that links power/feedrate beyond my control so depth is whatever Mach decides it is.
I keep thinking I will break out my old C++ books and give the Engraving/Laser plugin a good talking too but you know what it is like - where does the time go ?.
Tweakie.
