    Radius Help Sprutcam 7

    For some reason I can not figure out how to remove finish material in radius area. 1/8 radius, using a 1/4" ball end mill. Anyone know how to get this done?

    Thanks

    I try to draw everything I can in cad before exporting to sc. Then you can select the radius or circle and use 2d contour.

    I generally create the radius in CAD so that it is slightly larger than the radius of the cutter that will be used to machine that feature.
