    Default Inside square corner "over-cut?"

    Hello all. Wondering if there is a setting I can modify for this. I've searched the archives to no avail. Trying to make an mdf Shaker style door. I used to get pretty clean corners with "Free Doors" before I got got into V Carve Pro. Using a 90 degree bevel bit and the inside profile with the square corner option. The tool "over-cuts" the corner in the M3 move. I've tried editing the bit setting from 80 degrees to 110. Under 90 gives straight a straight line segment over-cut corner. Over 90 and it starts to do a rounded over-cut. FYI, Alpha, spindle, 3mm per pass to 6mm deep, 8k rpm at 20mm/sec. Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.

    A picture of the issue would be helpful. Maybe even the problem vcp file.

    Well… I thought maybe the allowance box was something magic… I took the time to learn what it was about and no, it’s not. I guess Scott’s suggestion for pictures or code is the next step to help us understand the problem better!

    Hi and thanks for the responses. Steve, that is the option I've been using for the inside square corner. I will take a few pics and post on Monday. Below is a test to 3mm deep (1 pass) and the bit (lie to software) at 89 degrees.

    How's the preview look? Is this where you are seeing the overcut corners or at the machine?

    Post the VCP file (after you WinZIP it) - otherwise, there isn't a whole lot we can do for you...
