Entering a pre existing hole with dynamic

[SpecialtyTool]

Can someone tell me how to make my cutter enter a pre drilled hole with the dynamic tool path? Basically I want to drill a hole, rapid my endmill to depth, and then start the trochoidal motion.

Use the dynamic rest mill and set the drilling operation as the rest material remaining stock

Are you selecting the point as your geometry?

I tried that but it keeps unchecking it like it doesn't recognize it. I tried the rest dynamic and selected the drill operation before it and it seems to work. Still like to know how to tell it where to enter without having a drill op posted before it.

if you got a plate with a hole already in it, simply create a dummy drilling operation (drill the diameter of the pre-hole directly) then ghost it to avoid posting

 

of if you got regular stock like .25 all around to remove, dynamic contour will be your best set

What I've been doing is make the dynamic op first, then do the entry hole where the dynamic starts. Your way sounds better though.
