  1. Dell Precision M60. It has the nVidia Quadro FX Go 1000, w/128mg Very Stable, and graphics are great. It also has both serial and parallel ports.
  2. right click on desktop. select display properties, setting, advanced button. Select the Troubleshoot Tab, and decrease the hardware acceleration.
  3. Spot Drill for Chamfering. Yes, I use with contour, chamfer and cutter comp and have had no problems. Except you can not allow for any flat on the cutter. The problem I have with using a Chamfer Mill as the tool type is that there is no option to define the default drill cycle. When I pick a drill I like for the cycle to be set automaticly.
  4. using mprouter.pst that is included on the 9.1 CD, change the following: pwrtt #if t >= 1, ptoolcomment to this (by removing the "#") pwrtt if t >= 1, ptoolcomment
  5. Mastercam does allow the "Chamfer" option with tools defined as Chamfer Mill or Spot Drill. I use the same tool a lot for spot and chamfering, and find the Spot Drill tool definition to work best. For a 3D chamfer, try a Ball Nose EM, and Surface Finish Project toolpath. Use neg. amount of stock for chamfer size. This gives an even result.
