in the 3 pics, one side I am going to remove the material from one side as shown with the tool path, then I am going to turn the piece 45 degrees and need to cut the small groves. how do I cut the grooves without cutting so much air?

Run the simulation and save the stock out as a solid model, import this as the stock for the next op.
Wow, thanks!
I never would have thought of doing it that way.:wee::wee::wee:
ok I have 2 machine setups. In the pics the first setup the side is the top, then after it cuts the side I thought it would stop so I could re-position the part when it goes from one machine setup to the next but it did not. the simulation runs as it should.
You can manually edit and add in a stop command at the end of the code from the first setup.Quote:

ok, thanks, I'll try that.
