I'm learning how to work with Mastercam X3.

I was trying to make this cut this piece attached but I can't find a way to toopath it, it's very simple but I have not found a way to do it.

I want to take 2.5mm the bottom and up of a square block and leave 2.5mm in the center of it intact (without any tool cutting it) as the picture attached shows, and coutouring the piece outside to full depth to cut it out.

Any help is apreciated.

Thanks

toolpath-contour-single: click on the edges you want to cut.

u can also use toolpath-contour-chain. To cut more than one line together.
