it does a rapid move to .1 then goes down .2  carves up and down as in the g code to different heights . I think  then the real question might be how do you set it up so that one could carve from the top down rather than plunging down to the lowest point  and carving up  to the top.

we place the z on the or right above the piece of wood and zeroing it. then when we start to run the gcode  it just dives right down to -0.2
