    Reads more like a hardware issue than a 'spoiled brat' issue

    After download just right-click and run as administrator https://spaces.hightail.com/receive/BpF63w0ZYK This has fixed the crashing issue for me. Credit to GBouman for the fix

    I will see if i can get permission from the original poster to post the fix here

    This was discussed on the main 'My Mastercam ' forum with a fix. See below 2 links (highlight link, right click, choose 3rd option to follow link) https://forum.mastercam.com/Topic46263.aspx#46264 https://forum.mastercam.com/Topic45606.aspx

    That's about as deep as my floating ring will let me go. Perhaps someone with a few more brain cells will chime in. For the 2 and 3 axis stuff I do the simple verify I use is more than good enough for me.

    In Simulation I had to choose just workpiece, not multiple workpiece to get the desired effect.
  8. AHarrison1
    In Simulator - goto view and choose either workpiece or multiple workpiece, multiple works for multi ops on a part

    Fella is 4 posts in and already branded...maybe he just know any better.

    That's exactly how I read it... then giggled like a school girl for the next half an hour.

    After watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUdpPwQin4s Rather incomplete product by the sounds of things
  12. AHarrison1
    To expand on this... To be able to search for a tool and have relevant part files come up or where/what file the tool was previously used in to copy parameters, etc.

    The direction of the insert i don't think is important as far as actual machining is concerned. The problems I generally come up with is gauge point of the insert which for threading inserts is the tip. Nine times out of ten I have to alter the z depth of the threading op, especially up against a shoulder.
  14. AHarrison1
    In thread operation choose select from table then drop down to buttress
  15. AHarrison1
    You should have a Buttress thread insert option when creating a new thread tool.
  16. AHarrison1
    You could also use show Gnomons or show axis for visual reference

    See Page 89 and onwards for steady rest info. https://whatsnew.mastercam.com/pdfs/whatsnew_2022.pdf. Contact your re-seller and see what they can do for you.

    Are you not able to hook up an airline to blow down the tool for chip evac?
  19. AHarrison1
    This times 1000, if your co-worker cannot see the light then let him/her/it bury him/her/it-self in their own ignorance.

    How deep are you looking to go? Walter tools have some option with thru- tool coolant https://www.walter-tools.com/en-gb/search/pages/default.aspx/threading/thread-milling?r=%7B%22Taxonomy%22:%5B%22threading%7C%7Cthread-milling%22%5D,%22PossibleForImg%22:%5B%22S%22%5D,%22ThFtFilter%22:%5B%22UNF%22%5D,%22TdzFtdz%22:%5B%22UNF%205%2F16-24%22%5D,%22Cxsc%22:%5B%221%22%5D%7D (have fun with that link...so glad things are 'stream-lined' here)

    Yes, sorry, finish operation. To add to the above, set clearance angles in punge paramaters to zero. 2nd or 3rd option for Plunge cutting.
  22. AHarrison1
    Use normal contour operation. If it needs to be roughed out 1st, then use groove operation and turn off finishing, then follow with contour. Play with Plunge parameters to get the desired result.
  23. AHarrison1
    I think your planes within the operation need to match, but I could be wrong though.
  24. AHarrison1
    There is a few things That needed to be done apart from what JParis stated above. I reversed the plunge/cut direction to respect side and end angles, re-set tool width. Changed wall back off to distance and .005 (groove and tool width are too close). Added .02" rads to get rid of burr creation and to make it pretty looking. Groove-aa attached Groove-aa.mcam
  25. AHarrison1
    So instead of makijng a snip then copy paste we have to make snip, save said snip, drag said save to attach or browse to said save to upload... OH boy oh boy oh boy, I can so see the anti extra mouse clicks brigade going absolutely spare about this.
