how do i upload the mcam file?
Im about to try the pocket mill and see what that does. But ill also double check the O.D!
update: that was the problem :D.
Hey everyone,
Attached below is a part i am working on. I am 100% self taught and just now getting into slot milling. For some reason the two smaller slots arent cooperating while the big slot worked just fine. Did the big slot same exact way in the vid. Really confused and need help!
Thanks in advance!!

Hey everyone,
Quick question. is it possible to upgrade the memory storage on a 87' Leadwell MCV-1300p. Trying to run a big program without having to break it up and theres not enough storage to run it all at once. Thanks in advance.
Holy crap thank you! So that section did up working! For everyone wondering why i dont go in on mastercam and fix it, the machinist that was at the company for 30 years was very old school. Programmed all on the machine. wasnt till a few years ago he started doing all this on the computer and almost everything is a 2D wire drawing that are hard to read. Still learning how to make them solids so i can read and understand better! Will definitely be using the links you have posted to help me out!
Will learn more how the G2/G3 code works. I wouldn't mind reading what you have to say though. I am currently using Mastercam CodeExpert. Any more explanations Ill gladly read and figure out!
