Hi @mooselake, I can’t download that file - you may need to check permissions on it.
That’s odd, since it’s uploaded instead of linked. Since it’s a square the code’s short. Here’s the cleaned code, see where the G1s turn into G0 at Z-3.81. I also had missed step problems with pockets in cleaned kids blocks in soft maple that I thought was the router, could have been this same issue instead.

Thanks for that - Initially it looks like my ‘augment’ function is playing up.
Thanks! I see that Carbide Create has removed their annoying retract/plunge code, at least in this straightforward toolpath. Hard to do a whole lot better than the (harder to follow) gcode above.
I was convinced that my revived Zenbot Mini was having bearing problems (it sat idle for nearly 10 years) or controller issues (new grbl_ESP32 board) causing missed steps in my grandkid’s number blocks, but I wonder if this G0 issue was cropping up there. I’ll see if I can poke around in it’s gcode
Edit: I’m making a small tray with 4 pockets in red oak, the move up to safe height, traverse, and replunge is still there when pocketing.
.
Well it wasn’t augment … but now it’s fixed anyway
Thanks!
