Is there a way to set the number of depth passes when cutting a board outline? The default depth of .002" is ok for engraving, but to cut the board , several passes are needed in order to prevent tool breakage. thanks. tc

That would be a good feature. It is not there yet. But you can create multiple g-code files with the depth you specify. JP
