    Hey Al,
    Thanks for the video, it was informative.
    A quick question for you though, is it possible to edit the stock values without having to go through the stock wizard again?
    I have a defined stock (8" dia x 14-3/8" lg along the Y axis) and say I want to edit the length or diameter or just double check the size of the original stock, when I go to stock wizard it starts as if there is no defined stock - the numbers are not saved there.
    Can you help me out?

    Thanks,
    Rick.

    No you can not edit the stock with out running though the stock wizard again. What ever values you have set in the stock wizard will remain, so if you need to make changes you can pick up where you left off.

    Hi Al,
    Thanks for the reply - but I still have an issue.
    I can do as you show while the file is open, but once I save and close the file and reopen it, the stock wizard no longer retains the information and goes back to the default numbers. Am I missing something?

    Thanks,
    Rick.

    The software will retain the offset values post saving the file. You are correct it will loose the enter values once you save the part.
