I have a Shapeoko Pro XL and getting to know it’s ins and outs so I am a bit new. Despite this I am having a problem that seems more MeshCAM related as my hardware is cutting very accurately.
I am working on a box joint where my 3d model is 0.5" but my milled output is coming in at 0.47" so it seems to be cutting everything with an additional 0.015"
I have checked with a caliper and the individual paths to narrow it down to the 1/4" end mill 2D climbing cutout. I also have a finishing pass of 1/8" which works fine. My tolerance is set to .001", Everything in Z seems to work correctly but my XY seems over-cut.
Does anyone have an idea why?
