4th axis issues

Hi,

 

I have two issues going on with my 4th axis CAM.

1st, I can't get the stock size to match the part OD in my setup (setup 1). If you look the model, you will see I had to add a radial offset. This is wrong because the part is already turned to size.

2nd, the slot on one side does not point at the axis of revolution, and the 3rd operation gouges the part. You can see this during simulation. I'm looking for strategies to mill this troublesoe4m wall.

 

File and screencast attached.

 

Thank you!
