How should I go about setting up a backwards boring bar in the tool library for ID back boring? There does not seem to be an option for this type of tool (see pic). What am I missing?

I would like to be able to accurately see potential collisions with the end of the tool and internal features or fixturing.

Hi @CAD_CAM_MAN,

 

At the moment within Inventor Not possible, only if you set it up without holder.

Within Fusion 360 you have a little bit more control for your holder, but it is even useless in your case.

Don't create a larger Leading Angle than 54,9 because you end up with this 😂
