I am cutting one of these out of MDF just as a sample. It is working great. But I'm finding out ,as it is doing the vertical lines, the machine doesn't have a lot of downward stability as it crosses the horizontal lines.

Did you come across this issue also? Maybe you can change your program to do all of the first step cuts. Then all of the second step cuts. Then the third. It would also cut down on your run time. And possibly make more define cuts

I am planning on making Trivets for a family member for Christmas this year. More of a 3D tree design.
