# Step 4: Follow the cutting Wizzard
Upon preparing the file, select the desired width for carving or cutting. Proceed to initiate the cutting process with the following steps:

- Ensure the sheet is securely fixed.
- Specify the cutting bit; in this case, use a 1/8 inch (3.18 mm) flat flute bit.
- Set the machine's coordinate origin at the lower-left corner.
- Raise the bit and activate the CNC Router.

Let the process commence, and witness the craftsmanship unfold!
