I have a 2 step counter bore pocket (slot). I can get the top pocket to adaptive , but cannot get adaptive to work in the lower pocket. The pocket top is .820 wide ,1.820 long and .285 deep, the lower pocket is .406 wide ,1.400 long and .215 deeper than the top pocket (Material is .500 deep (.285+.215=.500). I have changed tool size,step over and just about everyhing else.

What tool size are you trying to use? If it's a tight fit but your math estimation looks like it should work try changing the minimum cutting radius to a smaller value.

You will need to post the model To attach a file Go to File -> Export and save as a .F3D Archive File and attach it to your next post, if you can not post the file you can PM it to me or say in your next post you can not post the file and one of the Guys that do NDA work will help.

Might sound stupid, but did you just copy the first toolpath and selected bottom contour? Did you check if your Heights Tab> Bottom Height is not preventing the toolpath to generate? Thanks,
