Y Axis Mill Turn

[fpmachinebob]

Hello, Iv'e got a Okuma LB3000 EX II MYW.  OSP P300L, Iv'e been doing lots of live tooling for years on other machines, but this is my only Lathe that has Y. I want to make this cut in one pass, Radially ( i think, using the side of the EndMill ) like I do it now in my Mill with a 1/2 inch EndMill. I can draw all other Mill Turn tool paths but this has got me stumped. 

         Any help would be great

  Thanks, Bob

I suspect you know this already, but if you do it with the side of the endmill, you're going to get a radius in this corner:

Now, we could try to sidemill it and and blend in with the face of the tool, is that what you were hoping?

The small radius is fine,

Man I am soooooo bored today, running medicare small production job 🤣 

Hey, I missed something, just added .05 extension to start and end of a cut for good blend.

Ops, I got distracted and uploaded old file earlier, so here is one with extended start and end of cut.
