Hey does anyone ever have a problem where they try to move the origin of a cut and it just won’t do it? But if you make a file to tell it to go exactly where you meant it to go when you were trying to relocate it… it has no problem?

Thanks!

you probably are moving the origin such that the cut will not fit in the machine envelope. it is easy to miss the warning that pops up.

I experience the same issue from time to time. I’ll move the origin successfully dozens of times, and then all of the sudden when I try to start a cut the WAZER decides it’s going to go back to it’s original 0 instead of the parameters I just set. It can be very frustrating.
