    I have designed and built these using Mastercam many times. I use multiaxis swarf to finish the blades. here is the backplot toolpath video,

    Both the Kps3.zip & Impeller.zip files on this page are junk. Any way the rest on the world can view them?

    I have to ask Mike why you make a statment of the they are Junk. They are good files one is a Solid works file that comes in clean and the other being the MCX file and it comes in clean. I havent opened the other but the first one is a GOOD file. What are trying to open it with? What type of file do you need?

    Why cadcam? Because I could not get either one of them to open with the corresponding applications.

    EDIT - I tried it again today and I was able to open the Solidworks file. But I still can't get the Mastercam X file to open to see the toolpaths.

    Mike,
    There is no toolpath on the mcx file The only other toolpath is the link I put up.

    Mike, I take it you are trying to open it with Mastercam . What version of mastercam X if I may ask?
    Do you get an error when you try to open it?
