Profile cut not reversing on final pass

Post by Peteg »

HI

I'm doing a little test using the 'allowance' and final last pass and I have set the last pass to reverse just to see how an edge will clean up. I have the options checked but the last pass doesn't reverse.

What am I doing wrong?

I've never done it with a 0 allowance as you have set. If you set an allowance value then it works. I'm undecided if that's correct behaviour or not.
