Marking and cutting operation in one file?

[ChelanJim]

This is another post from Joe that gives you a bit more detail:

Marking a point

yup. you’ll notice in sheetcam that the holes will have a crosshair in the middle. you’ll click on the contour button then select the holes, place them on their own layer then drill/centerpunch operation. Make sure that’s the first operation so it’ll centerpunch the holes first then continue with the rest of the design.

You would not change your pierce height…same height as your cut settings if you intend to go thru the metal.
