  1. If you use a carbide drill you could always make your own shrink fit extension.

  2. I do a dummy drill op, name it "T3 SET HOLDER" or such, post-ghost it and leave it there to adjust the stickout or change holders in the future.

  3. That's a ~19mb .dll file located exactly where the message says. It is necessary to run verify/machine sim. Check your recycle bin and search for MachSim.dll and see if you can find it- it was deleted or moved somehow.

  4. This really is a great thread to view! So, there isn't a 'regenerate screen' icon or function in any of the menus? I searched everywhere. When I bump up my chord height to view a crisper looking surface it never worked! The view was always the same. I figured I needed to regen screen but couldn't find it for the life of me. So thank you, Rich Thomas! I never knew nor would have known "CTRL SHIFT R" regens screen! Viola! Now surf shading updates to the proper view when changing chord height! A minor inconvenience but it has been bugging me!

  5. When using the old style surface toolpaths, there is not a method in the parameters for adding a holder to a tool....in the newer tree style parameter dialogs, there is a branch for holder. As mentioned above, when using the old paths, you can use a drill path, select the too in need of a holder and add it into the drill path..once regenerated, it is also in the surface path, you can then delete the drill path as its purpose has been fulfilled Is that what you were asking?

  6. Should work as long as you can keep the grind concentric with the original shank. Just remember Inconel is an unforgiving material so any errors will be laid bare fairly rapidly. HSS or carbide tool? HSS might be more forgiving than carbide........
