Hi,,

I'm trying to select the geometry of the J slot, I do not want it to go around the front face however if i remove the two 12 degree chamfers you can select the bottom contour fine and it will generate the two J slots, The front face is already finished i just need to machine the slots.

 

any help would be appreciated.

Press the ALT key, select the first edge. Click it a second time, this opens a new dialog box. Add onto the chain, select the "+" button when done.

Can you export your project and attach it to your reply please. Can show you how to select the desired contour edges. 

 

Thanks
