Trim Toolpath twice

[Thee Rickster ™]

I need to trim a tool path a 2nd time because of the unusual compound 3-d shape of the mold P/L

I am cutting.

 

I trimmed it in the frontplane using a boundary and need to trim it again in the rightplane but the

trimmed path is not in the toolpath group when I go to select it.

 

Does any know of a way to achieve this?

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated

 

Cheers

I have wanted to do this before and have posted the question before, and my understanding is you

cant toolpath trim in multiple planes or more to the point more than one, you can trim more than

once in the same plane.

I divided the containment boundary into two.

i made 2 paths so then I could trim in both planes, it worked well.

 

Thanks
