How to manufacture (CAM) parts individually from the same file

I have a file where I have created 3 parts - not connected.

One part will be milled from 1/2" MDF while the other two will be milled from 1/4" MDF.

These are all in the same part file but not an assembly. (Sorry, I am a long time SW user and may not be calling some things by their correct F360 name).

I am assuming that I will need multiple setups for this - at least 2: one for the 1/2" and one for the 1/4"

I was able to get the 1/2" to show as a single process. I did this by turning off the other two bodies. BUT, when I turn the 1/2" off and have the two 1/4" pieces shown and start the second setup, it still wants to only grab where the 1/2" piece was. It doesn't readjust to what I have on the screen. I hope this makes sense....

 

I have done some research before asking this question and I can't find exactly what I am looking for.

 

How can I have it so i can setup and process these two setups properly?
