I have this same machine and am trying to cut something that is absolute max thickness. That means my Z=0 is very close to that maximum height the machine will go. This would be fine, but right before my file starts to cut the machine wants to go up an additional 0.5". Your machine does the same thing at 18:18. I've gone through the code and tried to figure out where this command is and how to change it. I've changed the safe z distance (and other values) to 0.06. Nothing has worked. Do you have any ideas?

Why did the spoil-board surfacing proceed from the outside to the inside instead of from the inside to outside as the Vectric software shows?

it looks like the surfacing file run is the one created using the TS routine and not the vectric file.
