V-Groove

Post by Forrest Chapman »

It's been a while since I've done vgrooves and I can't remember if I've done them in ecabs and control nest before so I'm looking for a little input. I've set up the tool in tool manager and included it in the mdf doors interior tool area as well as the custom tool in profile modeling. It looks like it's only using it for one of the grooves and profiling the rest. Any ideas what's going on?

I finally remembered how I accomplished this. In part editor create the tool path as one continuous line connected at the ends off the part. Control nesting will then see it as a single pass when MDF "interior pass" is checked and that tool selected.
