facing a recessed surface

[sstephe1622]

See attached file.  I've played with both face and profile.  Profile is the only solution so far that I've found to work.  What I would like to do is face from the inside of the tube to outside recessed surface but Fusion does not like that.  I did try both ways but crashed fusion. 

what I would like to do is rough the recessed face say to .003 and then go in and do the bore.  Then have the final face/profile start out the outer recessed chamfer and do a finish pass from the front to the back. 

The other question is how to define solid carbide boring bars.  The only options I've found is for square and clunky.  Shaft dia is for .315.  The head is .375

Thanks

This isn't going to be possible to do in one operation, it will need to be broken up into 3

1) This will do the recessed face. For that, we will use Profile, but set the toggle to "Face Profiling"

2) This operation will rough out the bore. Setting our Geometry selections to the face of the recessed surface and the back of the part will constrain it's toolpath. Careful selection of our clearance, retract and other settings will also greatly reduce wasted motion

3) This is a finish pass that will start at the face of the part, go into the recessed, go down to and then through the bore.

Happy Turning!

Oh, and round tool holders are on the horizon. No ETA on when they will become available, but the team IS working on that.
