    Need Help to Drill

    Hi,
    Just starting to use new version of MadCam and Rhino 6.
    I want to drill some holes for some wooden bulkheads for my Kayak.
    I can generate the tool path and simulate.
    But when I post the G code an error message appears that it cannot find the cutter.
    The cutters and drills are in the library ( but the drills have a "drl" suffix?)
    Screen pictures attached.
    Any suggestions

    Thanks Terry

    What happens if you change post processor, for example the linux cnc post?

    In the picture Drill details.jpg i see there is no tool number.
    I can not check at this moment if this is the problem. But can you can try to give a tool number.
