I think I have discovered why my Tormach Mill was machining deeper than I wanted. I spoke to the people at Tormach after running the G code for a second time removing any top height (I did not need to face the piece of MDF I was practicing on) and the G code still ran my mill 0.362" deeper than I wanted. The problem is with the G code being generated by Fusion. It is not changing the H (tool Height) to match the tool library tool I selected. So the G code thought I was using tool #1 in my tool library when in actuality I was using tool #2.
Maybe this is in the Post Processor file or may be, since I am new at Fusion, I missed something? But once I manually changed the H# to match the tool I was using, the program ran fine.
Hope this helps others....

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is because the tool library lets you have different numbers for the tool number and length/diameter offsets. This is supposedly intentional but it seems like a very bad idea to me.
