As you have it modeled, this is not possible. It's not an entirely proper workflow to create a model that reflects what you're going to (in theory) end up with at the conclusion of OP1. Rather, model the part as it should be when completely machined and then define stock accordingly.

 

Now, there are some cases where one would desire to create a model to represent what stock should be in subsequent operations, and that is something I do fairly often.

I've modified your file to represent what I think you're looking for, as well as demonstrate what I'm going on about. Give it a look and let me know if you have any questions!
