Toolpath doesn't match simulation

I've got a simple turned part with an external thread and i've noticed that the toolpath generated does not match the simulation or what is actually machined.

 

I've had to extend the back side offset well further than it should be to get it to be the correct length. See the screenshots for details. I've tried clearing and re-generating the toolpath. Any ideas?

Hi @jamesGEVAT

Could you attach the sample file here so I can take a look at it?

Hi,

I would prefer not to make my file and tool library data public. Is there a way I can share it with you privately?
