    Hi dharmic, that is correct, so all three solutions you mention work. The issue is when the rotary toolpaths follow each other they don't reset the WCS. I've been trying to get around this in the post, but I think this is really a bug... because all other toolpaths reset the WCS when they are run.

    Thanks Roger, but this one is a fusion issue, not controller.

    Ah: have you lodged a bug/help request on their forums? Sometimes they can be pretty quick to respond...
