Maybe someone can take a look at this and see what I am doing wrong any tweeks are appreciated every time I carve it the Flanagan on the bottle carves way to shallow.

It is probably do to the size of the text. You might try making the text bold or use raster.

I will try making it bold its weird because I have made this before with a different name and it worked fine

You might also try moving the design above up a bit and move lettering up just a bit along with a bold setting. Nice sign!

its funny you say that I moved the design up and I made the lettering a little bigger and made sure it was bold I haven't had time to carve it yet.

I tried my hand at it , I changed the text to bold, 60deg bit, and conform and reduced the size to fit the bottle.
it seems to be deeper

The mpc looks fine to me. Are you sure the V bit touched the bit plate?

Yes it carved everything fine except the Flanagan on the bottle. It carved it bit it was very shallow you couldn't see it good at all.

Check the bit assigned. The 60 will carve deeper than the 90 on the same font. The bit will go deep enough to fully make the line width.

I plan on using the 60 deg bit with bold letters.
