Hi all , I have different size washers to cut out on the plasma , when i create path to G code and view in NC viewer it always cuts the OD diameter before cutting the ID hole , The problem is the washer will drop through the table before it can cut the ID hole . Example washer OD 2.000 ID .750 . Is there a way to designate the ID cut first .
Well when i design the washer i select the object and do a path difference to cut out the center hole and then it becomes 1 layer . Also I designed a rectangle sign with some text in the middle and it wants to cut the rectangle outside first before cutting any objects in the middle .

No experience here. but I'd make a test to see if the Z-order makes a difference.
e.g if the outer diameter is higher in the order, will it cut before the lower? or vice-versa?
