    Drills Missing from Tool Table - - WTF

    Opened up Sprut8 this morning and discovered that all the drills were missing from my tool table. All the endmills and miscellaneous cutters are still there, but all the drills (and there were a lot of them!) have vanished. I am a bit perturbed.

    Has anyone else seen this quirk?

    I can't speak for Sprut 8 but Sprut 7 sometimes only shows the tools suitable for the current operation. Were you perhaps in the process of selecting a tool for a non drilling operation?

    Its the same in 8!
    The best way to see all tools is to create a hole operation.
    That defaults and shows just about all your tools in your table.

    Well, blow me down. You're both right. I had just never seen this before. It's a good day when I learn something new. Thanks.

    Just wait until you add some turning tools - I still can't figure out how to delete some unused ones.
