    Wrapped pockets

    Does anyone know how to machine a wrapped pocket in CamWorks and have the tool compensate the radius to maintain the wall of the pocket on the part centerline?
    I can get a wrapped pocket but the center of the tool stays on the center line which would make the side wall offset by the tool radius.

    Insert a multi-surface feature and select the walls and floor of your pocket. Are there square corners in the bottom of the pocket?
