Wondering if someone knows how to create depth which goes from 0" to 0.75" using PW?

Kai,
You cannot do this in partwizard, but you can create a machine along vector toolpath & then just edit the SBP code, by changing the Z depth on the end you want to go deeper to .75"

As Brady suggests, for lines with depth changes, you can edit the .SBP. For a tilted plane, consider a jig that elevates one end of the piece by .75. This worked well for me on a chair seat a while back.

Thanks both for the information.
