1-The board setting is 20" long. The actual pattern is 13", but I added to make sure no snipe. The machine goes through all its gyrations and then says size is 13/20 scale to size. ???? I kept starting over trying to get it to recognize size of actual board and what is in the settings. It "sees" the setting as 20". Finally let it cut. The result was a figure about 1/2 the size it was supposed to be.
2-It keeps starting to carve where ever it wants. The pattern is 1/2" off the edge. In this case I don't care about snipe. First time it started 1/4" from the edge. I hit abort, turned it over because that mistake would be cut out and started over. This time it started 3/4" from edge. Using an average it was trying to get it right, I guess, but the figure went off the other end.
3-Just tried a different pattern. This figure should start about 1 1/2" from center because it's about 3" across. On a 12" board it stared right on the end.
What is going on???? Why is it carving at various and sundry spots? The menu shows correct sizes before it starts and then shows a different size and says it should be something different all together.
As always, really appreciate the help.
