    version 23 machining order using vcarve

    Hi, still using version 23, Im doing some vcarving and was wondering if it is possible to change the machining order to save a tool change.
    when you do a v carve it start with the rough , the tool I use for this is the same as for cutting my contour, If I could use my vcutter first and the roughing tool second , I would not have to change tool for my final cut...

    Humm...now that I think of it my roughing has to take place before the vcarving other wise it would rough nothing ...unless it s a vcarving with a flat bottom at a certain depth...sorry
