P.S. Hope the above was helpful, I see many people using Sketches to try and get the tool in the right place but one thing to always try to remember is that Fusion 360 is a Parametric Solid Modelling software so always try to use the actual Solid that you have modelled.
The user should also try to create the Model as it will be machined, for example I see people all the time doing Pockets with 90 degree corners in the Model and then using a 1/2in End Mill to cut it out, poor practice, as when it has been toolpathed the tool will have no Fillet to go round and will be just running to a sudden stop and then changing direction, if a 1/2in EM is used then there will be a 1/4in radius in the corner of the finished part, so why not Model the radius in there to start with ?? Preferably slightly larger than the radius of the tool
