I believe that the second file merged would come in as is, but, I think you can scale it when you merge. I always open files separately, make conversion individually, and then merge prepped files.

I only got the n# one time
This is my fourth year here and I know when to push and when to set back let him fubar things up. I was looking more for some good ideas to have ready for when his way didn't work. I'm not into confrontation as much as I used to be so I just sit back and watch money wasted. I do a lot of the quoting and I know we are making pretty good money, so as long as I get my share, what he does with his is not of that much concern to me.
To quote an unknown source - " ...I was looking when I found this one... "
I am looking. Problem is, industry is leaving this are as fast as it can. Right now there is an excess of experienced people all looking for work. As it is I have to drive an hour to get to the closest shop that will pay me any where near what I should be making. The job really ain't that bad, except for the boss's anality, daddy's little girl playing vice president (we have 8 employees, do we really need a vice p), and the son-in-law (what an idiot).

I'll use yours as plan B

I have a very anal and intrusive boss in a very small shop located in a region where jobs like mine are few and far between. If he tells me to mill slots in the VMC table, then thats what I will do. I learned early on in my employment here that as long as I do what I am told then my a%% is covered and I can f^^k up all I want. See previous condition of doing it the way I was told to do it.
Just the way it is.
I am looking for employment that offers relocation benefits. Hint Hint.
I have choice between 3/4 inserted cutter and 1-1/4 inserted cutter. Will be using a helix cycle to create 1-1/2" diam c'bore. Boss wants me to use 1-1/4 and I would rather use 3/4. Hole will be drilled for 1-1/16 body drill before(sic) cutting c'bore.
Which tool would you use?
Are all your other paths working right? The file may have become corrupted somehow or removed. Try replacing the files from the good seat.

For me it wouldn't matter, the machine was delivered with an incorrect configuration, I would go through my paperwork, and then someones head would roll.
