NOT ABLE TO PLUNGE OUTSIDE STOCK

[Anonymous]

hey guyz, here i have a simple open pocket but i am not able to plunge outside stock while using the simple 2d pocket tool path.

does anybody have the solution to this ??

I think it has to do with your selection of the contour/chain for pocket selection. You want to just select the partial circle so its an open pocket and not closed. The stock in your setup or stock contours in the operation if you use it controls where it machines. See attached file , one pocket operation is using the setup stock and the second is the same but using the stock contour that I made a sketch for. I think that will explain how it works.
