That perfect piece of scrap

I know that if my material thickness is off even a little bit, the fish eye effect is noticeable.

I sometimes wonder if the crumb trays are slightly off but theres no way to enter it in manually. That’s built into the firmware.

But have have you guys tried adjusting the entered material height after the test cuts and watch the fish eye effect change? See if it aligns?

Yep. Heck if I can find it again though - that was a long time ago. :smile:

Even more entertaining is to set different focal points for different operations in the GFUI - the first time the machine pauses to adjust focus, it’ll scare the pants off you. (Of course, then it just picks up and continues.)
