« on: February 02, 2011, 08:13:21 PM »
could somebody please explain blade offset and overcut?  I though I understood, but now I'm second guessing myself.

Overcut is when your cutting software tells the cutter to go past the starting point of a path just a hair which will in theory make it easier to weed  :cheers:

and it uses the blade offset setting to calculate the necassary amount of overcut needed.
