Rotary axis with Mach 4
Hello, I trying to do a rotary job in V carve 10.5 The toolpath looks good in V Carve see image. But when I post it and bring it into Mach 4 the tool path does not look the same :?

multi pass pockets
I know this has been asked before but I can not find it on the forum. Is there a way when doing multi pass pockets to keep the tool from coming up to project surface between passes.
Thanks
Todd

It would be nice to set the nudge to 9mm, draw on circle, copy and past hit the arrow key. now you have two. Copy and past the two circles now hit the arrow two times now you have four. Do it again w...

wider path with a profile operation
Hi, Is there an easy way to make 3/8 wide profile cut with 1/4 bit that is 3/4 deep and go 1/8 per pass and have it do both pass before it goes to the next depth? By using the allowance offset I can get it to do but it will cut all the down before it shifts over unless I do individual passes for eac...

newbe nudge question
Hi,
Can you change the amount a vector moves for each arrow click ? I am trying to copy circles and nudging them over a fixed amount but I can not find where to change the nudge amount.
Thanks
