So, I'm visiting my uncle, who has a Tormach 1100 and we are trying to make a fidget spinner for his daughter. I have designed it in Fusion 360 and have been able to do most of the CAM paths just fine but I am at a loss as to where I am going wrong for the 2.5D part and I'm hoping someone will take pity on a noob and help me out. I have build the part as one object out of .25 aluminum, which is the thickness of most of the body. Then there is a "leaf" part that is .2" thick and that is what is getting me stuck. When I try and clear the leaf bit down the .05" my tool (.25 end mill) over cuts and runs into the main body of the spinner. I have no idea how to tell it that it is running into material that is apart of the final design... there is a good chance I am using the wrong operation and or I am just missing something simple and its tripping me up. Unfortunately I am use to more simple oppositions on my CNC router so my terminology is pretty limited. I hope this plus my screen cast makes sense... you can see where it is over cutting the stock into my part. And I for the life of me have no idea how to fix the problem, let alone have the vocabulary to search for a solution here.
thanks in advance to anyone that tries to help!
