I have a 2.5D model that I would like cut out a large piece of stock.

This workflow is for a CNC machine (not a mill with a vice). So the stock I have is 24" x 24" and the part is 6"x 20"

 

What is the best way to set this up?

Should I model the stock and shift it in an assembly to locate my part with in it? you can do it as a body outside the components or as it's own component you can have it model where ever you wont it around the body/component being cut out.

 

Can some one please shed some insight?  


When you do the setup you select the stock body for the stock in the stock tab you set it as from solid
