Four surfacing the normal is to let Mastercam calculate the Spherical tangency or the radii and this is done by tip.
I may missed some thing. But you should not have to make another surface for that part.
Looking at the order you did this in surface rough pocket then surface scallop.
Right to the edge.
Then pocket with additional finish path checked .roughing the pocket with the first pocket rough to floor only. Then the additional finish path pocket goes in and changed to a ball end mill for the radial walls. And finish.
This why I was asking to share your file so I could see how you did it the make changes and send back or make video to show.
Have fun Greg, sounds like you are.
