I need to cut keway on big cam

Honestly if it's a simple cut the easiest way to program it is point to point.

To get Mastercam to output code for a right angle head you need to modify a post, modify a machine def, and there's no way to actually simulate the tool for verification in Mastercam. Here are a couple links for you. The youtube video is long and old, but it is what I followed to get right angle head code output from MC.

I believe the only generic post that supports right angle head is MPROUTER.pst.

So your options are:

1. use MPROUTER and hand edit the gcode for all your M-codes. This will get you correct x/y/z moves.

2. modify MPROUTER to output good code for your machine

3. buy a post for your machine that supports right angle head
