  1. My post was based off the MPMaster post. Do I have to go into the post to lock it or under the plane stetting?
  2. I am trying to post out a 4th axis program I created with mastercam X5. It is a square part I am skimming 4 sides when it posts out I get the first pass has A0 but the other pass just add g55, g56 g57 with A0. I have a 4th axis post and my Zero is center of the axis. Also when I back plot the tool move around the part. It varifies a good part. Any help would be appreciated. Don
  3. Same way under file - file merge/pattern and translate to your location. I would also set up a layer for your vice first so you can hide it or show when you want.
  4. If you do a google search, you will get a result with images find a good bmp file you like and use the chook res2vec.dll to turn it into a vector file that you can then machine. Works great I use it all the time. Mastercam X5 Mill Level 3 Mastercam X5 Lathe Level 1 Mastercam X5 Solids Mastercam X5 FiveAxis AMD Phenom II x4 nvidia GeForce 9600 GT

  6. Your right I fixed it, it is to early in the morning to have these problems.
  7. I have a solid of a casting I want to use as material. It was given to me as a surfaces and in metric. I converted it to a solid worked fine. Scaled it by a factor of .03937 to bring it English and the part is all jagged. Is there a setting I'm missing for tolerances.

  10. The model is visible, I tried fit screen and even changed the back ground color to see if that would help, but it did not. I tried to load X5 mu1 and ran into a new issue I don't have access to MasterCam and I have to wait for the reseller to get in. This morning starting out great.

  15. When I run glass I use a Grizzly dust collector to get as much as I can. I also use those white cloth filters for AC and heating units on my coolant tank to filter out the particles going into the tank. It works pretty well, I haven't had dump the tank after using a filter. It also works when I cut cast iron.
  16. I want to take my 3d model that is just the 1 entity and have all lines and arc put back so I can select the for milling. I know I can select the edges of a solid but I want to make a 3d line chain. any help would be appreciated.

  25. I just purchased a SpacePilot off ebay does anybody know how to set it up to use with X4 and XP? I plugged it in and it found it with no errors. Do I have to tell MasterCam I am using it? and what drive do I use off the 3dconnection web site is does not list MasterCam?
