Lathe toolpath won't generate

[SGoldthwaite]

I have this one toolpath for the bishop in the chess set that won't generate.  It doesn't fail, it just always shows 0.0% progress.  I have the exact same toolpath on other chess pieces and they generate fine. I tried closing F360 and re-opening, but that didn't help. See screenshot below for the toolpath in question.  I also attached the F3D file.  BTW, I'm doing this as mill-turning, that's why all the tool numbers are the same.

Looks like an odd bug, possible workaround, make your Z axis stock to leave value less than the X axis stock to leave value.

Example :- X stock to leave 0.004in and Z stock to leave 0.0035in

That seems to work here 🙂

You're work-around worked for me.  Thanks.  How did you think to do that?

@SGoldthwaite I tested this file and I can verify that it's an issue in the production version but we have fixed it in the development version so it should make its way into an update at some point.

I assume your lathe doesnt have a tool changer, thats why each tool is in its own setup/folder?

I’m doing this on a horizontal mill (known as mill-turning). So the workpiece is in the spindle. The lathe tools are mounted in the vise, each with it’s own WCS.  That’s each tool needs its own setup.
