Mastercam X8 2D Cut Large Chamfer With Small Tool

[kelmcd]

I'm trying to cut a large ( .136" W x .05" D) chamfer with a .125" dia. 75° chamfer tool. I've watched several YouTube videos, but they mostly use 3D machining. We only have 2D machining capability. This seems like it should be simple, but I've had no luck so far. Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

use Contour, Depth cuts , and Taper make sure you set your depth of cut to overlap.  HTH

Wire frame toolpath will do it also.

There's probably a half dozen ways you could do it. Try either of the above, or if you can't get those to work you can try drawing wire for the tool to follow (either on the tip of the tool or using cutter comp), translate the wire to make multiple passes, and toolpath with contour using incremental depth.
