Stock alignment issue

I'm trying to cut this on a 3+1 operation and this is what my stock looks like.  I can't seem to figure out how to get my stock to align.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

The stock orientation is driven by your WCS orientation. If that is your WCS orientation, then I would recommend modeling your stock and using 'from solid' as your stock selection.

 

Cheers,


Karina

Hmm...

Can you share your file?

Hmmm.....I'm not seeing the file. Try again?
If it's an assembly, you will need to export it as an .f3z file, put it in a .zip folder and then attach that folder to your next reply (.f3z is not yet supported on the forums)

Thanks for PM'ing me the file!
So, looking at "Model for Matt" Setup and program, I'm not seeing the issue:

Is there a certain workflow that you were following to get the inaccurate results earlier?

Ok, I think I see that now. I was able to replicate the issue you are seeing, but, while it's a bug, I'm not seeing it as a Setup that would actually work, since the chosen Z axis is not in line with any turned feature. Are you looking at turning the .300" diameter shaft?  Can you share a bit of your machining intent so I can better understand what you are trying to accomplish?

I will be using a 3+1 axis operation.  Yes, the .300" diameter shaft is just there in order to rotate the part.
