Recommended Posts

I have to bore  5 holes,, I prefer to use my Boring Head because of the depth.  I'm using the Point Tool Path Method.  Is there a where specify what happens at the points?    Spindle Stop,  Coolant Etc.   i prefer to Stop the Spindle at the bottom of the Bore and then retract,  Is there better Method to do this, instead of the Point Method. Thanks in Advance.

I can't count how many boring heads and parts I have seen damaged over people not paying attention to this when shifting the bar.

Yes usually a parameter. But also must index the boring head. But some styles you have to be careful not to distort the main body by going to tight.
