moving origin for cam code creation

I am trying to use the setting point origin since the material isn't centered on the CNC machine. I have tried it three different ways and CAM keeps reverting to center of mass of the model body as the origin of the CNC mill bit. It wont accept an origin offset from the center of mass of the model when converting the file in the post processor. Any ideas?

It matters not where the material is located in the CNC machine, that is what your work offsets are for 🙂

Tool Orientation is ONLY a solution when you are dealing with parts being run on a 4th or 5th axis machine. This is not. The proper thing to do is to use "Selected Point" in the WCS setting
