I am pretty new to mastercam but I have a pretty good understanding on how to use the software. Returning from the mill essentials part 1 class I learned alot of cool stuff, only to return to find out we don't have the 3D part of mastercam at our shop. I can program pretty much anything on one plane but am having problems getting my tool to cut a slope. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First I don’t want to upset all the Mastercam users so please don’t be offended by my post. I have been an Esprit user for 10 years and recently got a new job and my new employer is a Mastercam user so I am learning the new software on my own. I have gone trough all the free lathe tutorials and still have a lot of questions and feel I haven’t covered anything thing I want to. I have two lathes with live tooling and a Y axis, when you go through the tutorials they don’t cover advanced machining for live tooling. I also feel like Mastercam doesn’t have as many luxuries as Esprit did for customizing tool paths and features. It just seems like there are less options with Mastercam, has anyone else out there been in my position before? Does anyone have any advice for switching software’s? Thanks,
