Converting a X2 clone to CNC

[Shawn]

I had a quick go just using one of the wizards that come with Mach3 but it seems to do an ok job. The larger engraving seems to have got shallower as it progressed but I don't know if it was the spindle slipping or the material surface being uneven? I need to do more testing to find out.

The smaller text is .125" tall and cut at a depth of .005" the larger text is .250" tall and cut at .004" Both were cut at 8 ipm.
