| Z-Axis Off I'm trying to use sheetcam 5.0.1 to create a battery plate. When I create the G-code for Turbocnc it sends my z axis up Z1.4075 for some reason and never comes back down to the part. I cannot figure out why? I've included all the files I think that are needed. Can anyone tell me what I have wrong? I've used before with no problem and my machine is zero'd at the top of the material. Thanks |

| Hi, Had a quick look and in Sheet cam, shouldn’t the tool length off set be a minus figure? -31.75mm and not 31.75mm ? John |

| I figured it out, on my tool I had accidentally put in a tool length offset |

| It can be either negative or positive. The offset is simply added to the Z position. |
