Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to set up some kind of boundary so that my entire piece doesn't get cut like we are seeing in the attached image. I imported a 3D model and am trying to do a roughing cut then a finishing cut with a ball nose end mill but the cutting won't stay inside of the model piece that I import. Is there a setting or a way to set up boundaries? I am sorry for the simple question, I am new to the software and have watched the tutorials but don't remember this being addressed. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Re: Help with cutting boundaries.
Create a vector boundary around the model.
Use the Create Vector Boundary around select component under the Model tab then select the boundary vector when creating the roughing and finishing toolpaths.
