    need help with eagle to pcbgcode output

    Hello, I am hoping some folks here use a work flow with Eagle - Pcbgcode and could shine some light on my problem.

    I'm new. I have studied pcbgcode and still can't get it right. Less than 10% of traces are output. Also it shows tool path for milling the board outline, I have the top etch as a ground plane, maybe it is cutting my ground plane, lol.
    I am in no way blaming softwares, I am sure i didn't check a box somewhere.

    eagle pic is what it should look like.
    cambam pic is what I get.

    Anyways, if someone has a minute please download the board file and see what pcbgcode outputs for you, or take a look at the pictures to see if maybe you recognize the problem.

    NOTE: Rename brd file.dxf to: brd file.brd This is an upload work-around, since the Eagle .brd file extension is an invalid type.

    Eagle 6.1
    pcbgcode 3.5.2.11
    cambam 0.9 for viewing paths and editing
    Mach3

    all traces on board are 10mil, clearance 8mil

    my setup for pcbgcode is:
    default .001
    max .008
    step size .005
    tool size .007
