Oval Rotation Definition

The Oval Rotation field controls how much the foot block will rotate before cutting.

Adjust the Oval Rotation if you are getting Bumps or Feathers on an oval opening.

If you have too much rotation on an oval opening, you will get a Feather, too little and you will get a Bump.
