I have designed something and added some toolpathes to the top of the model. What is the best practise if i want add some toolpaths to the backside of the model.
Do i need to copy my model and flip it and can then add the toolpathes?

Ok, your solution is perfect, but what happend when i will use fixtures vor both sides?
Should i place the fixtures a second time for the other side?
I think the answer is yes. In the included screenshots. I show setup1 in the first image and setup2 in the second image I show a view that mimics a part being flipped 180 deg on the machine (although in reality the part does not move in the software thanks to the WCS definition in the setup). Needless to say that the two images were taken with different camera views.
I copied and mirrored the fixtures. This gave me 4 fixtures which I all placed flush with the stock.
I also changed the visibility of two of them (watch the state of the lightbulbs in the browser) to get the proper fixtures to show up for a particular setup.
Of course the relevant fixtures need to be selected in the second setup too to make it all consistent.
