    Flipping Parts and Solidcam setup

    Hi folks,

    First time user for solidcam here. I have a part that I need to program to cut on both sides. I am using a conventional chinese CNC router to do this. Is there a way to set two different coordinate systems (one for top and one for bottom) or do I have to have two different files? Thank you in advance.

    Ah.... I think I've figured it out. I just created two separate configurations.
