Hi Chris Bell, thanks for the great editing job and letting me know. Just as a follow up to my situation it has been suggested I purchase a C-hook form another software company outside of Mastercam for $3500.00 to $7000.00 depending on modifications.

Rich, thanks for the reply. Joe

Hi all, new here. Been using MC for about 12yrs. 5 yrs with wood. I make curved handrail parts, posts, fancy caps, exterior trim from composite material, and stairs + treads lots and lots of them. So it was great to see MC had a little utility called create Stair Geomerty. Only problem is it isn't code compliant in Ontario. It doesn't add the top riser geomerty for attachment to the header, the round nosing of the tread is a code violation (they say its a tripping hazzard), and the wedge angle doesn't account for the setback point of the riser to the tread so the wedge can be driven all the way in. That being said I can get close to what I want but then have lots of geomerty ajustments to get to where I want to be. I've had an live online session with CNC Software where all issues with my team and them were discussed and visually displayed....but this has gotten me nowhere.
