Machining both sides of material
Hey everyone,
I have a PRSAlpha and I'm having difficulty aligning circular cuts on both sides of a sheet of MDF. The process thus far has been cutting the circles on one side, setting a jig to the outside corners of the material, flipping the material, and then cutting the same circles on the other side. For some reason the circles aren't lining up and I'm getting a small lip on the cut as if the circles are shifted offset from one another (see attached photos). The strangest part is that the circles towards the middle of the material have the largest lip, while the circles on the outside only have a tiny lip. I've checked the drawing file to make sure it was symmetrical, I've made sure our table is square, we've tightened the x motors to ensure that they aren't slipping, and the material is being placed in the jigs in the exact same place when flipped but no dice. If anyone has any other suggestions I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
-Pat
