Magic!
🕑 Added 2022-02-23 19:40:06 +0000 UTCTo install the magic version, download and run the 5.2 installer.
Windows installer: https://github.com/Defdist/DDCut/releases/download/v5.2.0/DDCut-5.2.0-Setup-x32.exe
Mac installer: https://github.com/Defdist/DDCut/releases/download/v5.2.0/DDCut-5.2.0-Setup.dmg
After installation is complete, you will now be running DDCut 5.2.
The magic is new probing. Instead of probing one time at the very beginning of the job, it will do a probe sequence before engraving. It'll be CRITICAL to WATCH the probing. If you see it touch off on any point that is unexpected, and not part of the surface you want to engrave, DO NOT MOVE FORWARD to the next step. It will result in something exciting.
Otherwise, if all goes as expected what you will see is that the engraving job will follow the plane of the surface. Which means if the surface of the work piece isn't even, it'll roll with it. If your mounting isn't perfectly level, not big deal. It'll make it work.
I've been working on this for a while and am excited to see it get some more use.
Let me know what you think as you try it. It's currently only available to Patreon supporters, and it requires DDCut 5.2 to be able to use it.

Which probe type are you using?
Should the blue "probe" points only be within our engraving? Some of mine are showing just outside.
That link was the latest at the time. 5.2.1 has since been released. Latest is always here - https://ghostgunner.net/downloads/
Hi Matthew, You mentioned a DDCut 5.2.1. Is the above link the latest or is there a more recent one?
