2D Chamfer toolpath

Can someone take a look at this and tell me why I'm not getting a toolpath?  It seems pretty straight forward, just a single pass down a straight edge.

 

Go easy on me though...I'm still VERY new to this.

 

Thanks!

Hi @chris90,

 

when you have a modeled chamfer then you have to select the upper contour, set chamfer width to 0 and then you have to set the chamfer tip offset like your chamfer and a litte bit more.

 

For different chamfers you have to use for each a single operation.

In Help it says to select the lower edge of the chamfer, but when I select the lower edge it can't generate the tool path.

I've also tried to select the upper contour like FTKnur say. It works well in most cases, but sometimes retracts tool on corners and you can't get the right result.
