    Surfacing with a disc shaped tool

    Hi guys I'm trying to surface some horizontal ribs with an Iscar grooving cutter inside of a cylinder. Can anyone guide me on how to do so? Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply. The problem was in the tool definition. I did not specify the full radius that it needed to be.
