I'm still having this problem...  I ruined a couple of parts last night by not checking that they had posted correctly.  Stupid me...  but I still would love to understand what's going on.  I thought that it was just the .125" setting in the multiple depths that was causing the issue, but I changed all of my parts to .126" last night after they failed the first time, and the second time around 2 out of 3 posted fine, but the 3rd one failed like before.

 

It's extremely frustrating because I'll get half the code, so it looks fine when I pull it up in Mach 3, but then it gets halfway through and then suddenly stops.  Worse because it shuts off the spindle and drives itself to home cutting a huge nasty gash on the way...

 

The parts were extremely simple (just circles) - it's the 2d contouring that's causing all of my problems.  It seems like it should be the simplest of all, but for some reason it's been the bane of my existence.

 

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help troubleshoot.  Thanks,
