Need help with blue 50 watt (friction) rotary attachment settings . . .
As anyone who has seen the manual knows - it's pretty useless on this subject. When you enable rotary engraving, you're supposed to enter the cylinder's diameter in MM and some mysterious number called "Circle Pulse". I have done a ton of trial and error trying to figure out how to calculate a number that will make a 3" ellipse engrave 3" x 3". But, I haven't played with it in months, and now, no matter what numbers I put into those fields, my output is compressed, for example, a 6" by 1/2" box 'Scales' at only 5". Any ideas what I'm forgetting?
