    Hi Guys

    Sorted out the problem with the toolpath by upgrading to Estlcam v10 and defining the operations in a different order.
    The photo attached shows the final dusthood cut from 10mm perspex sheet using a single flute carbide cutter running at 12,000 rpm, 600 - 900mm/min feed and doc of 1-2mm. Took around 1hr for the all operations. The link to Youtube shows the last operations. I'm pleased with the finish of the pocketing. Now to get on with doing some real projects!

    Kind Regards
    Mike
