I love MasterCam's nesting feature. Although, when it creates a couple sheets, I'm having to save each sheet to it's own file so it can be lined up with the origin. Is there a way to "change" the origin for each sheet while saving it to one file? It's not a huge deal, but would be much more convenient if I could create artificial origins and do all the toolpaths on one page. This is MC 9.1.  |

| I believe that there is something in MC that will act as a WPC (G54-G59) but being new I can't be totally sure. The Books that come with MC aren't that great for learning and the guy that I am working with is new to CAD/CAM all together. I'll check tomorrow and get back to you.

| Hi, I've never used nesting but the way to "change the origin" is to use the Work Coordinate System (WCS). Download the tutorial here : http://www.hardmilling101.com/downloads.htm |
