Hello,

i would like to know if it is possible to machine the slot corners completely that they match the 3D model without using  small tools(Less than 4mm (0.15748 inches)).

Thanks

Thanks @seth.madore 

only problem is the part extends in Y+ direction and the endmill would be cutting into the part when it is going around the corner. Is there a way to constrict the tool path only at one end?

Thanks a lot @seth.madore !

Follow up question if i may?

Is There a way to make the surface extend follow the 3D model in a parametric way?

For example if i have a workpiece a diffrent lenght i only presspull in the Y+ direction and the surface extend will follow the model whatever the lenght?
