Ok, anyone know how I can take a flat pattern of a slot and wrap it around a cylinder for a full four axis cut? I can only get XZC moves instead of XYZC. I dont have a model with the right geometry or I would just do a swarf cut on it. I tried wrapping the original flat pattern for the top and scaling down the flat pattern in Y and wrapping that for the bottom of the cut, but at that point they are broke up into segments and I cant use them for the swarf or get a good surface off it to use.
