David . I had success with bias angle 0 and crash with 45 degrees . Go figure ? Grab my file Bunnyscallop.zip HYLI

As a regular pocket What you R trying to do ? Put an example part on Ftp and someone will show you how to do it . Rather easy thing Look here for some examples http://www.emastercam.com/ubb/ultimatebb.p...7505;p=1#000003

Also this : Rotary axis parameters are used to create toolpath motion for rotating parts. The part can index about a rotation axis to a specified tool plane, the part can rotate about a plane while the tool stays parallel to the rotary axis, or the part can rotate about a plane while the tool stays perpendicular to the rotary axis. These parameters are often used for lathe toolpaths. You can set the rotary axis parameters by choosing the Rotary axis button on the Tool parameters tab of any toolpath dialog box. Note: To see accurate rotary toolpath motion, select Simulate Axis Substitution and Simulate Rotary Axis in the Backplot Display Parameters dialog box.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Select "disable duplicate tool checking" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Still it happens from time to time when using combination of your own operations and operation libraries It never happens to me when I import operation library to the empty operation manager ,so better import operation library as the first stage HTH

If points are from arcs ,try combine view Screen->next page->comb view

It can be anything else ,like you changed geometry direction or toolpath compensation side or direction (unintentionally ) I never met such a bug and I suippose it can be aome mistake . Nevermind ,it can be easily corrected HTH

I think in any case longer support for a plate is essential Bolt some long bars to the table ,mill them and put tape over them HTH

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Just don't machine from solids. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I support this statement ! Design with solid ,then convert to surfaces and mill them . Solid milling has issues and also not so user friendly . Associativity to loose ? - you pay the price . But ,if you`ll mill from solids ,especially 3d sutface toolpathes ,be prepared to some funny things that may happen to you from time to time . But anyway solids package is great thing ,and not so bad in compare even with Solidworks ,it has some great tools and it is stronger from version to version . Regards

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I believe when these situations arise you do have some loyalty issues . And mine lie with the other 90+ employees we have here. One guy running bogus software could be enough to close the doors on the place. If he is punished publicly or not, I don't care. But taking food out of the mouths of 90 familys plus my own, becomes a major priority. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You are absolutly right ,Storkman ! But what with the guy ,anyway . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If he is punished publicly or not, I don't care. ~~~~~~~~~~~ I do . You never made mistakes ,Storkman ? Never was in his place You know ,when you are young .... ? You think that is a propper way to deal so hang him at the middle of the workshop as a lesson . I would make it known to everyone that Noone has a right to install anything and what responsibilites are . Simple and clear . But nevertheless I would try to end this matter privatly . I may be wrong ,that is my personal views and my morals .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We will take the appropriate steps on our side to deal with the situation. In fact we already have. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Take note -We . I said why you made this thing be Known to everyone I would deal in private . Why to humiliate someone even if he made something wrong for a first time ? He may read this now. His work comrades may read this now. Why? Was it not enough to talk him and you personally for a first time ? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What the heck? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I thought you understand me

If your part walls are thin ,directiong of milling and the tool quality are very important Less RPM ,good sharp tools ,conventional milling instead of climbing and biggest possible enter exit arcs will help you .

SLJ ! tHIN WALLS ?

Dan ! And everyone else ! I am Iskander`s voice : " I never said that what this poor fellow made was good . I only say that I would react different and your way of dealing with this thing contradicts to my moral principles . Being the atheist with moral principles ,I will nevertheless turn to religion . One of great Jewish religious teachers sais in Talmud : Ten zhut al-yadey zakay,ve ten hova al -yadey hayav . That means one very basic ,but important thing : Good things leave to good man ,and bad things to bad . Also in the same book you`ll find a prayer : G-D almighty ,don`t choose me to be your punishing hand ! This is a basic principle and it is simple - try not to punish ,at least not to exagerate punishment . If you punish too much ,the man will hide inside him hatred and will live with it all his life and you`ll be responsible . You`ll be responsible for his shame and humiliation ,and he may basically from a good guy turn to bad by your own hands ,you `ll create yet one more criminal ,misanthrope or homeless . That`s religious principle ,but I share it too . How would I act : I will talk with him privatly ,explain the moral aspect and the punishment and the responsibility of you and your company for his actions . That would teach him a good lesson and I doubt he would ever do it . You acted publicly and I fear many others know now his story . That`s a bad thing . Why ,even in Russian army in sergants school the first thing we learned was to punish a guilty man in private as far as possible giving him chance to restore a good name and this thing works as far as I know . I prefer encircle me with a friends ,not with enimies ,I have them too much anyway ,because I always say what I think . That`s the first thing to say . Now comes he second : In dark ages I am sure they would burn me alive together with a bunch of witches and wizards . In any country . Because people always fear things they don`t understand and wish not to understand . Knowledge can be destructive and can be protective . But you can not protect if you don`t know how to destruct . That`s always divided people on two groups white and black wizards ,kinda . I am protector . I never cracked anything not because the fear of punishment ,but because of my moral principles . I try to raise my daughters the same way . The inner self is the worst judge ,your sin stays with you forever,no matter you caught or not . But knowledge protects too . Having known how easily I can be tracked and how it is close to impossible to hide the trail I would never do iteven without moral principles too . So what`s wrong to educate the people . Hacker is not a bad guy ,as you think . He is a bit geek ,but what`s wrong with that ? He is a guy that asks questions and finds answers and don`t believes anything without checking himself . Now everyone can go to hundreds sites ,take some backdoor dropper and hack your computer . I want you to know that this person will never be me ,it is against my principles . I can dedicate my humble efforts to cracking Mastercam ,as you may think ,or Microsoft products ,as you suppose ,still I would never do it . And not only because I have obligations ,signed agreements and fear of punishment . I never destuct . That`s my basic principle . I like to help ,I like smiles and laugh ,I do not want tears of children after the next virus ,that can be mine in theory ,but never will be in practice . I come and repair and that`s enough for me and I never take money . About this poor fellow . I am happy that this guy stays at your work . Now comes most hard thing to say , I fear flames rising about me . I will turn to religion one last time . Jews before Yom Kippur say to everyone : Sorry if I hurt you in any way and can you forgive me . This means that if you hurt someone unintentionally You must say this anyway . The hatred ,feel of mistreat and pain is the worst thing . Cross over your pride and became friend with this guy and who knows maybe one day you`ll say that I was right ! " Peace

looks like you checked in reverse toolpath setting and used mirror instead of translate in transform operation
