Hello everyone. I have mastercam X, and am practicing with of its many features.

One problem I have is that I don't have some tools in my library to do some operations ie: circle threading

Im not trying to actually mill anything, i just want to learn as much as i can with master cam X for future use.

Where do i go online to get more tools for the master cam library?

thanks

you can take an existing tool and modify it and save it as a new tool.
On the thread milling side I just pick a standerd tool that match's the size of my thread hob tool.
Also try looking in the help while to the tool area this will give you some info.

What version of Mastercam X?

hello
how do i move a solid from one level to another level in mastercam x?
pls anybody knows tell me ?
thank you

[cadcam]

go to levels at the bottom left click and set a level you want to use.
Now go pick the solid you want to move or copy.

From here it is pre-selected now go down and right click on level and set it for cope or move. Click the green check and then you can use the quick keys "Alt Z" to open the level manger and see that it has moved.
