    rest roughing problem

    why in the attached file is my rest roughing 'b' operation in the second toolpath group different than the one in the first toolpath group? in order to attach the file i had to change the extension to zip but it is not a zipped file. please change the extension to .mcx-5 to open it.

    Because your 2nd operation ( hi-speed Horiz) in the B group has different settings to the other ( you left stock on )
    so the stock is different before you even start the rest milling
