Is my Z axis inclined? was created by jvalencia
After surfacing my support board with a 20mm flat bit there are micro-steps all over the surface. Is the Z axis inclined or what's going on?

How do you fix this?

I've heard that it's a good practice to machine both X and Y. This is only the X direction.

Not tried it yet but this guy really knows his stuff!


I'll be trying this next week - love the dust extractor, my Stepcraft HF extractor keeps blocking.

I did that, a big pocket operation at 0.25mm depth with a 20mm bit like this:

But I suspect my mount is a bit deviated from 90º.
