I have a Grizzly G0619 (Sieg SX3) and I use CamBam which I highly recommend.
After selecting a circle on the graphics screen and creating a machining "Profile" there will be a configuration table for the "Profile" on the lower left side of the screen.
In the configuration table one of the options is "Inside/Outside" which will determine whether CamBam places the tool path or the cut on the inner side of the circle's circumference or on the outer side of the circle's circumference.
The center of the tool path or cut will also be offset from the circumference of the circle by the distance of the radius of the cutter that is configured in the configuration table by its diameter.
Under sized cut circles suggest that the actual cutting tool has a smaller diameter than the cutter that is configured in the configuration table.
