Hey prettygoodnotbad,

Try switching between Climb and Conventional milling. This changes the direction of the path in relation to the rotation of the end mill.

 

 

In the Conventional cutting example (left) you can see how the end mill could chip the wood as it's cutting against the gran. The Climb example is cutting with the grain. It will depend on the grain orientation of your wood, but you can run tool paths that only cut corners and switch the direction accordingly. It'll take some experimentation, but this will probably solve your problem.
