Minimum Cutting Radius: This value should be smaller than the tool radius

[landcrush]

I'm trying to set up a laser tool. I created the tool and just used the default values. I just want to know if fusion will output correct G-Code to set the power and feed rate, however, I can't get the tool set up as I always get this error. The setup is simple, a square with a 2-d contour. There does not seem to be anyplace to set the tool radius to a different value that I can find. How can I eliminate this error message and continue with the setup?

Thanks in advance for any help.

You cannot use the 2D Contour toolpath for a laser, as that is a Milling toolpath. You need to use the 2D Profile toolpath in the Fabrication section (your Setup also should be set to "Cutting". See photos below:

Thank you my friend, the video I was watching did go into this, but I was just too impatient to get started to watch it thoroughly. This is exciting stuff. Thank you for taking the time to help me.

Kind regards,
