Does anyone know how to change the direction of surface milling? I dont mean climb or conventional, I'm refering to the overall starting point of the surface 3D. I've got the ball endmill milling just fine from the top of part down, I was wanting to mill from the bottom upwards (to use more of the side of the cutter). I've tried changing z start & end but that does'nt work, also deselected mill top surfaces first.  |
