Tool paths from MakerCam not showing up in Ground Control

I had trouble before due to the browser I was using. Try to switch browsers, maybe that helps.

don’t know why it didn’t work for you, i used the most recent version of makercam
http://maslowmakercam.000webhostapp.com
with .25 in bit size, .5 in depth, .125 clearance
18 in tabs
and got this:
test.nc (30.7 KB)

edit: tossed it into ncviewer.com and it looks like it worked:

Firefox will work best for flash based sites like makercam, chrome makes you reset your flash preferences every time you start it.

Great info and advise everyone!
However, I finally figured out what I was doing wrong.
I was improperly entering my depth as 1 rather than -1.
I feel rather embarrassed as I’ve been struggling with this for a week and it was just a simple oversight. Seeing that it worked for you all helped me realize that I had to be doing something incorrectly.
Thanks for helping me narrow my focus.
This is a great community and I can’t wait to someday be the the helper rather than the helpless.
