Thanks for the reply!
That is what I do currently, I was just looking to clean things up a bit. We also have a seat of Autodesk Fussion and it is possible there. Thats what got me wondering if i was missing something is mastercam.
I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction on this part. We have an Okuma horizontal and what i would like to do is lay the part on the pallet and use one of the multiaxis toolpaths to machine the cam surface with the side of an endmill while rotating the B axis. I very little experience using multiaxis toolpaths and am not sure which one is best to use and how to use it to get the results I'm looking for. I have attached a file.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or advise you could offer.

Whenever I do a transform toolpath that contains operations that use a custom tool I get an error and the tool does not display correctly in backplot or verify, even though it works fine in the original operation. Does anyone know if transform toolpath supports custom tools, or do I have a problem with my custom tool definition?
Thanks!
I had the same problem translating a pocket tool path. Switched from NCI to geometry and that seemed to take care of it. Is there normally any advantage to using one or the other?
