i think it is supposed to work that way. if you change the tool number or size of the copied operation it is correct.
having the same tool number with 2 different holders in the same program is not common
try changing the format statement for the b axis
look for this in the post
fmt A 11 cabs #C axis position
fmt A 14 cinc #C axis position
fmt A 14 cout_i #C axis position
change the 11(in my post maybe not yours) to a 2
and repost
at the top right of the import operations box browse to the directory that has the mastercam files.
it will then allow you to select the ops out of the files
Search for mcview.dll on your computer
Open control panel
Double click on the mastercam applet
Goto components
Got to the path where the mcview.dll was located
Right click on it unregister
Right clicl again reregister
Hope that helps

best thing to do is create curve slice to get the correct profile of the turnrd geometry
if the solid is too complex the slid geometry does not work
hope that helps
Hello David, it looks like the post that you are using has the rigid_tap : 0 #0 = Floating tap output, 1 = Rigid tap output (suppress spindle output and output M29)
switched on
create arc--->circle edge point
make sure the tangent button is pressed far right of the ribbon bar
select the 2 arcs
enter rad/dia size
pick the circle that you want
