3d sweep

[DC CNC]

I'm trying to sweep this pocket as I don't have multi axis. For what ever reason (I'm sure it's me) I can't get it to work.

You have 2 pieces in the arc at the bottom and 10 pieces at the top. Need to either make an equal number of points on both chains and then use sync by point or break the circle into 10 pieces. That is why you are getting the error inconsistent number of syncs.  Once I made an equal number of points on each the toolpath worked.

I cut that shape with Waterline. I think you would like the way it cuts that shape.

I didn't know I had the ability to use waterline. That solved my problem. Thank you

Glad to help. Have a good night or day depending on what part of the world you are in.
