  1. Thanks! That's exactly what I ended up doing. I'll put a mill/turn on my wish list
  2. If there was a budget for this I would have sent it out, but I'm in a corporate prototype shop and my budget barely covered materials.
  3. So I have this decorative part (pic attached) that has 3 sets of holes in a circular pattern at 3 different angles. I have a Haas VF-2 set up to peck a single hole, with the part in a manual indexer mounted on top of an angle plate. The setup is not great, but it's all I have at the moment. I can drill the center hole, and one of the rings, but the second ring needs to be clocked 30 degrees from the first one. Does anyone have any tips on how to clock the second ring? I'm using a ball pin in the chuck to find my origin and I was thinking of using a level to align the second ring of holes when loading the part.
  4. So I ran disk cleanup, defrag, and scandisk without any issues. Reinstalled MCX2017 with update 1. Still getting the same error. I guess I'll keep using X8 until the next update. Oddly enough I have had similar problems with the tool editor in previous versions. Those were fixed with the second or third updates. Maybe there's something about how the tool editor works that throws off my system?
  5. On a fresh installation of 2017, when I double or right click on a tool to get into the tool editor Mastercam crashes. I get the standard crash reporting dialogue, and I get this: I know my graphics card isn't great, but I've been running X8 without a problem Any Ideas? Thanks, Brian
