Circle milling back cbore upward depth steps

So I had to scratch my head but I figured it out.

All linking parameters are incremental. My slotting cutter thickness is .157

I wanted to do two cuts with a .002 finish pass.

So I chained counterbore at the depth of the model that the face would be cutting. It didn't work at first.

I ended up with 

Top of stock -.157 face-cutter thickness

Depth -.18(only need enough to trigger the finish pass.)

 

It's reverse of a top cbore.

I usually draw my arcs to represent the cuts, then chain them using incremental depth of zero...

I usually do heliexs up by drawing the helix and chaining it using incremental depth 0 as well...

Sometimes the tool path editor to edit out the retracts, depends what the process was I needed
