Custom Tool Display

[Code_Breaker]

I want to made a custom tool for backplot and verify. I have placed the tool design on the FTP site as SANDVIK45CHAMFERTOOL.MC9

 

I would like to do other type of designs that are not standard to MasterCAM.

I forgot to tell you when you draw cutter you draw 1/2 of the cutter with center line in middle.

In Mastercam help menu search for Custom Mill Tool, or Custom Lathe Tool.
