Are you using a Mesa card or a parallel port with your THCAD-10?
Most of us with Mesa cards would be using 1/32 divider so I suspect you are not using one.

I had the THCAD jumper for frequency dividing set at 1/64 as per user guide. I changed that to 1/128 and changed the necessary settings, and that works. 
I will add a note in the doc about your experience with thicker material.

It is in the config that was posted  forum.linuxcnc.org/plasmac/44512-voltage...olts?start=20#229583

That is on the third page of that topic, after chasing our tails for several days and coming up with all kinds of (now imaginary) solutions.
Had that info been posted on the first post, by the third post it would have been fixed and done with, most of us here know very well that encoder counting on a parallel port works perfectly, right until it passes the speed capability at what point it starts to spew out randomly random numbers. < not a typo.

Well said Tommy, I don't download zip files of configs and I'm sure you don't have the time either.
