This is the thread to the issue I had. There is some great advice from members of the forum that you may find helpful as well.

> I finally got to play with my X-carve again after a few months. I went to do a carve today on .5 MDF and ran into this issue. It seems that the machine was having issues keeping a consistent depth cut in the center of the larger areas and leaving a slight ridge in the middle. Ant suggestions/input is greatly appreciated on how to resolve this. [IMG\_20191010\_134206] Thanks, Joe
