so one can tell me if I am doing it right or wrong..
I need some help understanding how to properly define a tool in Rhinocam.
This is important because I want to get into doing 3D forms and I understand that by doing this I will be able to see and workaround any collisions with the stock during simulation.
Below is a picture of one of my bits.
It is a 2Lins ballnose.
0.125" dia with a 0.5" flute lenght. The Overall length is 2"
After pluging in in all the info, I come up with a tool profile that has a step rather than a taper.
I know it that does not exist so I can disregard that. But being new to this, I would like someone to please double check my steps to make sure I am doing it right.
Thank you

It looks like you're doing it right. I don't think RhinoCAM defines an angle between the flute diameter and the shank diameter. You might ask Mecsoft to put this feature in on the next revision, but I don't think it really matters much in practice.
