Resume only works if you pause between cut loops. If you click on the drawing where you want to start, you will get the option to “run from loop” or “run from line”. Choose “run from line” and it will generate a new pierce point and start from the spot where you clicked.

What is are these ‘flip up’ you speak of?

When things get cut out, they can tip up instead of falling into the water table. It all depends on where the cut part is located on the slats. If they tip up, the Torch can collide with them and drag the metal out of position.

Always make sure that at your 0,0 location there’s enough table left for the cut you’re doing.

I usually do a quick jog to the extents of the parts just to be sure. Zero out where you want then move until the cross hairs are at the far corner of the part, then you can just tell it to go back to 0,0 (or not, it’ll figure it out)

When post processing sometimes changing the cut order can greatly reduce the possibility of tip up issues. Its dead easy in Sheetcam, not sure bout F360.
