    multiaxis toolpaths and top of stock

    Hi there,

    Im new to Mastercam world and I have a few questions. I have a statue that needs some toolpaths. I have a box stock on a 4 axis vertical machine. Is it possible to start with a multiaxis toolpath that is going to start at the top pf the stock, going to recognize the top of the stock the same way that is done with the 2d toolpaths. I have a feeling that it is not possible, but I figured that I should ask before I look for different solutions.
    I hope I was clear enough

    Thank You
    Mark

    Yes, you need to define your stock in the Stock settings page.
