Still trying to surface my Spoiler Board .. HELP ;-)

So have cut my test file and indeed a second file from Sketchup via Cut2d. This flagged that my Spoiler board is not true so am now looking to surface it. Watched a great video that Xavier suggested (thanks!) - But I simple cant get it to work. My spoiler Board is as recommend for the 1500xq500 machine- i,e 1360 x 1200. I have repositioned it so that the top right hand corner is below the HOME coordinates. I have even now made a ToolPath that is 1270x1200 so that it is within the safe area (although I have also reset the safe area to 1360-althuogh it seems to only have added this to one side in 3d view?) either way i get that attached - and outside of machine limits. I have followed the fix that is on the forum regarding Z axis..

Can someone please give idiot proof instructions for this.

Hi,

I would advise changing the the Workbee working area back to 1270x1270mm.

I would set you work zero, at machine coordinates 0,0

Then the Z-Axis just touching the surface of the material.

In your CAM program, set your Work Zero to match this position.

Then it should work.

Thanks

Hi,

To diagnose this further we need the following pieces of information.

- The G-Code file you are trying to send (Not the CAM file)
- Go to Files > System. Open config-override.g and copy/paste the contents back to us
Once we have these two pieces of information we can work out exactly what the issue is

It would be best to email this to us

Thanks
