It sure would be nice to be able to manually select any tool for any operation, even if bobcad thinks it the wrong tool.
For example, if I want to use a end mill classified as a roughing mill in a finishing operation I have to create a duplicate tool classified as a finishing tool, then manually change the tool number (and not forget to change the height compensation) in the NC file.
Why can’t I pick the tool I want to use for the operation from tools I have in my tool crib (since I populated the crib from tools I have in holders ready to use).
Adding a reduced shank check box to allow reduced shank tools to be created would also be helpful.
Thanks,
Joe
