CNC12 setup for machine bed?? Laguna Smartshop 2 Router

Post by Dangerfox.com »

We have just fully gutted our Laguna Smartshop 2 4x8 router and are up and running. Its AWESOME!! We love it.

Right now we are setting up our files to run off the material surface, this makes us have to reset Z zero every time we change materials. We use our machine in a professional manner and are cutting 7-15 sheets a day. This creates an issue with efficiency and also makes our Z cut depths erratic sometimes cutting deeper than we want into the spoil board.

How do we set up CNC12 to run z zero from the spoil board and run our files from machine bed instead of material surface?

Thanks in advance for your help!
