      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Group&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I would like to simulate the cutter where it actually machines into soft fixtures as&amp;nbsp; a separate bit of stock from the stock model, is this possible?&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I.e if i add them as the stock model it actually adds to the machining area and i don't want this but i do want to see where the cutter cuts into the clamps / jigs so i can make sure there is enough meat to still hold the part.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;A&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Include them in the model selection of your Setup, that should do the trick:&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>Hi Seth&lt;BR /&gt;thankyou for your reply, unless I am missing something that doesn't work. for it to show the clamp being machined away it would need to be part of the stock but if you include them as stock it then messes with the tool paths..&lt;BR /&gt;</description>
