    Possible to setup a default Pocket Setting? i.e. Offset Pocket Out/.5" Roughing Mill/

    I am tired of having to change the part default from having a Zig Zag pattern to my usual Offset Pocket out and having to change the bit to a 3/16" endmill instead of the .5 it always gives me and I'm tired of getting rid of the default .020 cleanup pass.

    I'd like to set my usual settings and have the Pocketing Routine start from my prefered defaults every time.

    Is this possible?

    You could save the feature pocket and then use load feature.
