Tool and Stock Collision


Recommended Posts

I am turning an OD on what will be a chess piece. However, I keep getting the tool running into the stock error. Any fixes? I'm new to all this and learning so any help would be greatly appreciated. Picture included:

What did you use for the OD Turning Boundary? You should create a "Turned Profile" wireframe chain, and use that to perform the basic OD, and groove turning. Trying to generate a turning path, by just using the Solid Geometry, is asking for trouble...

When turning in Mastercam, you should be generating Wireframe Geometry to drive the path. That is the easiest and most "controllable" way to drive a turning toolpath.
