Hole drilling with Easel

Projects
1

So I have set up easel to drill a series of 3mm holes using a 3mm bit. It works great on the first pass but then
tries to make a second pass enlarging the 3mm holes to 6mm. I have not programmed this as far as I know.

Sorry, forgot to add the file is being exported to grbl control software for actual cutting, not X carve. Also the cut path
in grbl control usually disappears after the first pass, this setup doesn’t.

Can you share the Easel project?

Thanks for responding. Problem turned out to be I had to select and reset the holes my dxf file had imported to “fill” and presto, had 3mm holes instead of 6mm. Thanks again.
