Hi, can someone be nice enough to tell me how to translate letters on to a diameter. I've tried for weeks and the people I've asked either don't know how or they just don't want to tell me. I just took a Mastercam X4 class and the book does not show you how to do it, it just tells you to do it. I tried the translate command but it does it in a straight line instead of doing it at the same radius of the diameter. Any help will be verry much apreciated. Thank you.

I think I used "roll", but it was about 3 years ago, I could be wrong. BUMP

Thank you Rob, I tried it and was able to make the letters at a radius but not at the right position. I'll keep playing with it. Thank you for your time.

I am currently engraving some letters on our 4th in the Haas right now :-)

Just in case your cutting expensive or one-off part; I had to roll my letters CW (backward in verify) to get what I wanted at the machine......
