    Change Facing Axis

    Hi,
    I'm practicing Mastercam and right now when I face a workpiece it faces along the X axis of the part. How can I change it to face along the Y axis of the part?

    I've tryed using a few of the sort options but none of them have worked so far.

    Thanks in advance

    Change Roughing Angle to 90. (Or whatever angle you need.)
