    Thumbs up very green person needs help with lathe making a crown

    Iam just learning or trying to from book i have i need to turn a crown in middle of part how would i even draw this out ? I tried programing it manually with a canned cycle it did all my roughing passes on the first side but when it went to the oppisite side of crown it just took a finish pass . Is there any one that has some examples i can look at ? actually the part looks like a flame . its .890 long .300 dia with a 1.550 radius . Iam using Master Cam 9 and also have acess to master cam x3

    Thank you for any help or examples in advance
