Hey guys, English again. Here is a file I finished working on and still can not get the contour to make a toolpath. Is anyone willing to take a look at the file and let me know where I messed up? I’ve built several very simple things and am having THE SAME issue. anything minus hole patterns won’t generate a toolpath. Just found out I can’t upload files bc I am new. I’ll email the file if cool with you? It’s just a display for some pictures at work. ---

Could it be that your Z0 in Fusion is set at the bottom of the material? Then all Z is positive. If Z0 is set at the top, the cut paths are negative and safety height and travel height are positive. ---

I did figure that one out. Made share to have it in the positive z axis and select the bottom edge, correct? I was trying stupid variables, like clicking things out of order on the input command for the 2d contour. I’ve got a graphic designer friend that’s trying to mirror my results today. I’ll keep posting as I find the problem with troubleshooting. ---

I was having toubles getting set up over the weekend as well. I am using fusion on web control and i couldnt grab any contour tool paths. I found that my tool orientation was off. then when if finally got my toolpaths i was getting errors in the post process. It kept failing. I found that i also needed to set up my stock origin. and keep an eye on your planes. I found this link on this forum and it helped tremendously. Starting around comment 9. I finally got g code and made some cuts. now i just need to fine tune a few things. My feed plane was set a .2 inch but the g code showed nearly .5, so i just edited it. that the beauty of web control. > [@Fusion 360 confusion](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/fusion-360-confusion/3565/9): > > So this took longer than my lunch break, but I was able to diagnose the issues we saw in this thread. Okay, problem the first: Which we already pretty much knew was going on. It’s quite an easy fix. Click on “Box Point”, and several white dots will show up. You will want to click on one of the dots at the top of the model. I selected the center point, but you could quite as easily select a different point. One other quick change I made was to flip the X axis. Not really ne…
