Question......
When designing a piece, I have a channel that is 3/4" wide by .425 deep. Now, while the depth carves fine, the width of the channel is wider than 3/4".
Does the designer not account for bit diameter ? I haven't measured the actual width yet to see if it's off by exactly 1/8" (half the bit diameter X2) but thought I'd ask.
If so.... I'm assuming that reducing the width in the designer by 1 bit diameter will correct the issue and carve a channel that's actually 3/4" wide ??
