Tool Depth Change
I Cut my VacBracket and noticed something strange. When I setup the tool depth for the 6.22 mm end mill, in the Cam tool setup, I set it for Z-12.3 from the top of the material. When I converted to G-code all the depths, were changed to Z-11.6167 mm by the converter. Why did it come up short in the conversion.

Re: Tool Depth Change
I can confirm that there is a problem (rounding issue) which prevents QCAD/CAM from diving to the final level in this case.
A snapshot release (QCAD/CAM 3.18.1.2) is available which fixes the issue. I will send you a download link via private message.
