    tools

    can you draw tools in Rhino and use them in madcam or do you have to accept the usual ball mill, flat mill etc. ?

    Re: tools

    I haven't used madCAM in quite a while, but I seem to recall custom tooling profiles were possible. I believe Joakim has a video showing that. Just going from memory, but I seem to recall a custom tool profile being used to cut a shape on a table top. But that was long ago and I'm old, so you might want to search YouTube yourself because my memory isn't what it once was.
