| Hi - Not sure if this is to dumb but - I am afraid to let the cutter get to hot. Before I had a very small CNC mill and now I built this HUGE CNC Routing table it takes a lot longer to cut a big vs small piece of work. What do you do to pause the cutting and let the cutter cool and then start up right where you left off without missing any cuts? Thanks

| Pause. Then Cycle start to resume. You'll probably want to turn off the spindle while paused. A better option would be to slow down the spindle and increase the feedrate, if you're cutting wood. Or possibly hook up an air line to blow compressed air on the cutter while cutting.
