Duplicating CAM Pocket to Contour

Duplicating CAM Pocket to Contour

I'd like to create a duplicate toolpath pocketing operation, then open up the new one and make it a contour instead of a pocket.  Example, I'm machining some holes and gauge pinning them.  If they're undersized I'd like to create a new program (duplicate) based on the old pocket, but simply open the hole up a bit.  No need to pocket here, just a few contours will do.  However, its nice to retain all my previous info from the prior toolpath without starting from scratch or waste time machining air.

Is using the derived operation something that could help you?
