    <description>&lt;P&gt;There's a lot to get into, but basically the "engrave" operation is not what you want to be using for the toolpath you're trying to create. Try 2D contour, or chamfer.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;As far as the engravings go, my personal preference (which is wrong) is to use the "Trace" toolpath and then do a G52 shift for whatever depth is needed. Alternatively you can use 2D contour with compensation set to "Off" and lead in/out disabled, then set the bottom height as "Selected contours" minus whatever depth you want..&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Good Evening Everyone, need to pick some brains...&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;In the Fusion file you will find a mess of construction and single blue lines, as well as cut out geometry both requiring what I think is the engrave geometry as a first step.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Firstly the straight lines. Here my intention is to engrave thin cross-hair type lines into the wood as an indication on exactly where i want the screws to go. Problem is when I select the blue lines that make up the cross-hair they do not constitute a chain so they are not included into the contour selection. Is there perhaps a way that I can carve these lines into the wood without them being a chain?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The second issue I found was when I wanted to use the engrave tool to cut 45 deg chamfers onto the cutout geometry before I actually cut it out, gave me some freaky results. The round profiles were not followed, but rather the tool path is that of a diamond shape. I included a circle and a slot in the engrave example I have supplied in the file. Surely if i select a contour, the v-bit should follow that contour?&amp;nbsp; Mind blowing&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Anyway Please Help&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Kind Regards&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Warren Krummeck&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I use trace tool path for engraving.You can do multiple cuts to a depth you want by using a axial offset.You are able to set the number of cuts that you want take to get to required depth.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I’ve recently had success in engraving hardened steel using a dbit.The &amp;nbsp;cuts where only 0.02mm to a total depth of 0.16mm .I was very surprised it worked as I didn’t think the cutter would last&lt;/P&gt;</description>
