    Default Drag Knife basics?

    Need help.
    Built drag knife after looking at several other designs but it does not behave nicely.
    Using two sealed bearings. So, it turns very easily. I have the blade point .075" behind center.
    Code is from Vectric Cut2D drag knife widget. Any guidance greatly appreciated.

    I don't have one yet, but how is it misbehaving? I would imagine that the correct cutting height would also be and integral part of the setup. Along with the offset geometry and CAM that can use it.

    Keep playing with the settings, they take some fine tuning.
