Thank you . This is the best explanation of how to work with the assembly.

[@JITCADCAM]

Glad it was helpful!

Some things I’d like to see is some advanced tips and tricks when using a 4th axis. Like profiling parts and having ball endmills use the tilt and lean or any of the 5 axis tool paths. I recently used something like that on an oblong part and it was tricky to figure out if you’ve never used those features.

Glad you enjoyed it

Perfect video - we are just about to get a UMC350 Haas 5 axis and prepping now - we competed in Project MFG competition last 2 years

Well done

How would you do this using a 5TH AXIS Dovetail fixture like a R96D362?

[@JITCADCAM]

Upside down with Tabs. Send me an email I can walk you through it.

I had to delete the 3rd joint (@ 4:00 minute mark) where it orientates the vise to the Origin. It was later keeping me from orientating the stock to the Origin (@14:30 minute mark). Took me an hour to figure that out. Not sure why but that 3rd joint wouldn't allow the vise to move with the stock when I tried orientating the Origin to the top of the stock.

Thank you for the feed back Ill look into it.
