    Why does the cad program assign 2 toolpaths to the design and how do I delete one or stop it from doing so. The machine cuts the toolpath twice.

    Thanks Hoghead that worked for me. Why does the program put a double toolpath?
    Side note, I am also in KC and I have a close friend we call Hoghead ( He has a big head) :). He is a Royals fan like no one else.

    I can't answer on why it double toolpaths. Im sure its just a setting though. As far as the hoghead part, I was a locomotive engineer for the railroad for 39 years and this is the term they called us

    Has anyone of you tried as an alternative the free Fusion 360 version yet? Features look interesting to me...
