Am working on a jig and I need to cut a couple pockets where the toolpath needs to extend past the edge of the part, I tried in 2D, but couldn't get it to work as the toolpath would never go past the end of the part so it left parts of the pocket uncut. Switching to 3D, I was able to extrude the outline, but when I try and extrude cut, I get that a message that "open and self-intersection chain is not allowed". The chain looks closed, but how do I make it closed?
Also, is this the best approach, if it's a 3D part, then draw it in 3D.
