Tailstock Drawing

[Randy Morton @ Clem Industrial]

Good Monday all, (if that is possible)

 

I am looking to draw a custom center (looks like a pipe center). So, I drew it up in MC and it didn't accept it as a proper center when I went to use it.

 

So, what I am looking for is a couple of drawing tips. Do I draw it facing left or right? (I drew if facing left, cause I have a left spindle) Do I draw the whole center or only half above the center line?

 

Is there anything else required for this?

1, need to draw half of the geom.

2, from setup page, define tailstk

3, from toolpath/misc.ops/tailstk, engage or retract.

 

regardS!
