Pls see set up 1, parallel passes.

I can highlight the face between the vertical legs....but none of the machining strategies end up cleaning the whole face....

Am i selecting the face wrong???

No file ??

 

Have you looked at using the 3D "Flat" strategy ?? It has options for either a Pocket type toolpath or a Parallel one.

You can use the "Avoid/Touch Surfaces"as in the image below to select the faces to machine, might be easier for you 🙂

Hope this helps 🙂

I got it I had the area set for geometry set or silohoute....

The face was considered outside the silohoute....not sure why that would be but bounding box solved the issue.
