I have drawn two identical cabinet parts in Vector 9.0 and cut them out of a piece of 3/4" oak plywood. Sometimes the pieces are exactly the right size but most are 1/16" to 1/8" too wide. The plywood is held down with screws. It's not moving.
Bit used is 1/4" upcut spiral.
I've tried speeds of 1.75 up to 2.25ips.
Shopbot comes back to 0,0 every time just fine.
The cabinet parts include 3/4" dado in three different locations, 1/4" shelf holes, and the last step is to cut the part through and through.
The dados and shelf holes are exactly where they need to be and the right size. The only problem is cutting the part out.
The part is cut in one pass and the bit goes in same direction for each piece.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Dave
