Hi, this video is a little longer format explaining first operation for new or returning users in MasterCam. I tried to include a lot of my thoughts while going through each feature.
Most of this content can be found as separate videos in my "Getting Started in MasterCam" playlist if you were looking for a specific feature or toolpath. Thanks!

Thanks, more videos coming soon. I've been sick for like decades (flu season 🤧) so I'm just starting to feel well enough to make these again.

Would like to see tutorials on 3-D tool pads on how to use them and where they are best suited at how to select the geometry and faces would be very helpful

[@artofthepart]

I actually just posted a video recently on some 3D toolpaths for Mold Making - specifically Opt-Rough and Equal Scallop. It's under my Arbor Press Case Study Playlist.

Will there be a video showing further processing from the second setup? I really look forward to it.

[@artofthepart]

Absolutely, working on that video now. I'll hopefully have it up in the next day or two! Fingers crossed 🤞
