I don’t have a preference. I would do at least a quart size.
Another thing to look at is cut height which you mentioned.
What does IHS mean in relation to all this? I don’t know if it helps about what I shared above; my actual measured torch height tip is .0565 versus what CAM says it should be which is .065
IHS is Initial Height Sensing.
It’s the process you described of the torch diving down to find the top of the metal and set that height as Z zero. It uses that zero for reference for your pierce height and cut height.
The THC records the voltage when you reach cutting height then maintains that voltage by moving toward or away from the metal. Theoretically keeping the torch at your set cut height.

Figured that’s what it meant, but didn’t want to assume.
So could my issue stem from the fact that 1. IHS is working to sense initial height but 2. due to the discrepancy in measured height vs CAMs height is adding to my issues?
