Creating Toolpath for an Ellipse Profile

[scott_nRBUC2]

Hi everyone! I'm very new to fusion and CNC machining in general but have been drafting and modeling for a long while now. I have an elliptical profile that sweeps around a 12x12 piece I need to do for a mockup; the design part wasn't much of a hassle but I'm having trouble finding the right toolpath to use. Whatever I do seems to leave some stock that it shouldn't be. I've been exploring through the 3D paths in combination with the 2D contour, but haven't had any luck. I was planning on using a 1/4" ballend bit. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I got flow to work in 3 clicks

Consider splitting it in 2 so it does both segments along their "long" axis

I realize I have a ways to go as far as learning is concerned 😅 What tool path type did you use for that?

"FLOW"

Thank you, now if you'll excuse me I'm going to just walk straight into the ocean

Thanks for the help, that last reply was meant to be comical as I go drown in my embarrassment at my ignorance. Unfortunately, text doesn't convey well. I got it goin
