Spiral

The toolpath follows contours that are offset inward from the material boundary.

Zig Zag

The tool motion consists of:

  1. Linear moves across the material,

  2. Followed by offset moves parallel to the material boundary, to the beginning of a return move,

  3. A return move that is parallel to, and in the opposite direction of, the previous linear move.

The linear moves are parallel to a vector you are prompted to identify.

Zig

The tool motion is similar to Zig Zag except the tool re-positions after each cut so that all cutting motion is always in the same direction.
