How to control bore size?

Hi,  I have a component, with a hole with 25mm diameter, but I want to make a hole with 12x16mm to insert a alloy plug .

 

In powermill I recognise the size and change hole size manually to 12.

 

In fusion, the only way I see, it seems by doing some math and increase radial stock, or design a hole with 12mm dia

 

Is there a easier way?

Hi @nubrandao , head over to the "design" workspace and edit the model.
Thats whats i would do.
But yes you could use "stock to leave" and "Height"  in the "manufacturer" workspace, to get a 12x16 bore.

Maybe is better to add stock to leave, I have to do the math 

 

The model usually has a bigger diameter, but the final diameter will be machined in another machine, all I have to do is a smaller hole, so they can center in a different machine.

In the drill menu under cycle type select bore milling and use the hole for location then enter the diameter you want.
