So I watched the video produced by 1F on initiating your first cut on the machine and yet again I am having issues, no surprise there i suppose! :joy: My machine is homing but giving me the “error” message of "“no fit” in the top two homing blocks [No fit image 1] In addition, When I try to prob…

Probing, It tells you when probing, you must be within .5 of the probe before initiating the probe sequence. Move the bit just above the probe before probing. Your toolpaths are outside of the cutting area. Follow and watch this (when surfacing, you cannot use the probe to xy zero as it will mov…

for this topic I am not surfacing. i was going to run a flag file. So I am a little confused with the surfacing comment

Sorry, No fit is 99% of the time surfacing. Ignore any toolpath warnings until you do this list: 1) Boot up 2) Home the machine 3) place material on wasteboard (or install wasteboard) 4) Load file you want to run 5) Zero (different than homing) xy and z axis Only after the above steps does “t…

@Santos76 - my last video might help you understand the difference between homing and zeroing. I also covered over/no fit in my new users video as well. Let me know if you have any questions. -Tom

Thank you for the response, I got it figured out (thanks to the very supportive online forum members)
