    drilling 3d

    Hello:
    Can somebody tell me if is possible to make a 3d drilling program with mastercam?. I need to drill several holes over a flat plate but all of them with different depths.
    I allready have done programs with round contours in 3d, and I think that it must be easier with drilling, but I canīt do it. In the drilling toolpath menu doesnīt exist this, or I donīt know how to do it.
    At present I am using the v.X3. I would appreciate any aid.
    Thank you

    You have to have selected the hole centrepoint at the finish depths --- ( you can select arc centres if needed )

    op parameters
    retract = 0.1 ( abs )
    top of stock = 0 ( abs )
    depth = 0.0 ( incre )
