[QUOTE="macminn, post: 73063, member: 6054"] Good advice Marcus. I'm muddling my way through this a bit. When you say make your way down the process tree, what am I looking for that would send up a red flag? That's part of my frustration, not knowing what to look for, etc. This is how we broke a $100 diamond bur. The software missed one of the roughing steps with the 2mm tool, and the 1mm tool broke. I'm having a hard time getting Sum3d to simulate the milling as well on these files. I thought I would use that to see what step or steps it skipped. And to clarify, the milling process is being completed, but it's skipping a step somewhere in there. The last step is internal finishing, and that's completed. Not sure if it's not generating the G code, or if it's just skipping it. [/QUOTE]
