Hey all,
I'm still new to Mastercam and I have a question about pocketing solids.
Some features that are closed (like a large thru hole) or some that are open (like the seats for a rocker arm) give me this error:
"Boundary does not lie in the construction plane"
Yet all of my views are the same.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance,
Joe
Could you post your .mc9 file up here ?
I suspect it has little to do with solids and more to do with your containment boundary.
I can't get the file to upload.
Mind if I email it to you Matt?
ZIP the mc9 file before uploading
Joe,
I sent you a Private Message.
You can e-mail the file to the address provided.
Pocket will only work if the boundary is flat. Most likely your edge is a spline and "floats" slightly in the Z axis. You can try to "Squash" the spline and then reselect it for a pocket.
