I just used contour on some castings where I needed to control how close I got to the workholding in the 5-axis. The absolute edge of the cleaned up surface has a wide open tolerance, but the placement in the workholding meant I couldn't drive the toolpath off the modeled face. So I used contour and a sketched containment boundary to face the area while avoiding the vise jaws by about 0.015".
Went to ProvenCut and looks like a great resource. I did find one small issue with the page, when navigating via mobile browser, the HTML gets pretty messed up and bounding boxes and tables are a bit of a mess. Changing to desktop version fixes it, so looks to be a mobile only browser formatting issue. Anyway, you'll see a subscription from me shortly! Great idea 👍
I have my part on the edge of my stock which is modeled in a 6” Kurt vise on my Bridgeport mill. I’d like to use milling both ways at multiple depths with a finishing path but have my enter point on all depths at the edge of the stock! I can get the first depth cut to enter where I want but the rest of the depths enter from the other side which it cuts in from the top of the stock not the side! Am I stuck with climb milling to achieve this?
Aloha John I have a tricky setup problem. I need to make two long t-nut type slides for a bandsaw fixture. My only machine is a Tormach PCNC440 and the part is 23" long. In my mind this means refixturing the material at least three times along the x axis. The stock is only 3/8 thick and finish width is less than 1" . I'm trying to decide if soft jaws (4" Tormach Vise) or fixture plate with something like Mitee Bite parts or even Mitee Bite to tee slots. My Job budget is small as it's for a Non-Profit.
Completely outside of my normal experience, so excuse my ignorance in the question, but where "Morph" can blend 2 other styles, does that mean any 2? Specifically, I'm curious about blending Spiral and 3D Adaptive... What'd that end up looking like?
I would assume the only way is to "lie" to the software that the tool is a smaller diameter. Not exactly good practice lol but hey. Masertcam has that same problem so I would just do a do a helical bore on center big enough to cover cusp.
OK. You need to grind those test pieces flat on each side, bond them together and hang it on a wall. I've seen a lot less beautiful pieces passed for art.
But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Yeshua ישוע (Jesus) and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the YHVH יהוה (LORD) shall be saved.” Romans 10:8-13
OMG..a full 180 day college course in 19 minutes..Now I will have to play this vid on a continuous loop 24/7 to get all the info and details.

That morph cut seems like it would be really aesthetically pleasing if it were done one way rather than two way. I'll have to give it a try sometime.
John, This is great stuff and with improvements in FUSION / HSM ? CAM it really helps iron out the options. This is core NYC CNC !!
Thanks!
Naah do it like I do with a 12" facemill in one pass. :-)
high efficiency milling
Lmao JOG +
I wish my Taig can hold 12" facemill
This was a really great video John! Super useful... Nice work, as always!
@7:00 if you came in with a 4" shell mill would fusion be smart enough to go around the cylinder sticking above the face?
the beauty of seeing letters and such in funny orders is that you can read the title as how to pace a fart lmao
Nice helpful tips, thank you.

John, I think we all know the best way to face is to take your part over to the belt sander. That is how all the professionals do it.
LOL
Damn, is that a joke? Have I been doing it wrong? I like my Belt Sander. :-(

Awesome video!
Thank you John. This was super helpful!
Fantastic Video!!!
Great video John. Very useful.
Nice job with this video John. Thanks.
Great timing I’ve been struggling with this at the moment
Any tips on avoiding that center sliver in Adaptive? I get it almost always. I've tried "adding" negative radial stock to leave, but no success.

More videos like this, nice explanation, keep cutting :))
Thanks i always watch your videos for information
Thanks 👍🏼
Cool! Thank you!
This is a really good content, thank you.
great video
So when you used 2D contour isn
't it basically the Same as 2D face with 90°?
The pattern is the same but face will cut through the contour you select vs against it.
@@williamclark77 ah, got it.
Thanks
Really cool!
is this the HSM CAM or FUSION CAM ?
Fusion
Just use a face mill only time I don't is if I have features to mill around
Hi~ may I ask you what kind of 3D CAD software you use?
Fusion 360 :)
are you actually running at 10000 rpm..?
muy bueno nyc cnc
Спасибо) Джон)
nice
Only 10 ways to face a part!?! That just crazy! I would expect at least 11. /sarc
ha /gotcha
OK. You need to grind those test pieces flat on each side, bond them together and hang it on a wall. I've seen a lot less beautiful pieces passed for art.
Whenever I see bare adaptive on finished parts I think the programmer is lazy.
petiyo101 100% agree. One of my worst pet peeves
You left out pocket
