Ill try and put some pics up later

cheers

starting a line inside the billet

hi, Is it possible to draw the part inside the billet i.e. start the line at z:-15mm? it seems to allways start from z: 0
I have a 2 op job that i want to turn around in the chuck and i want to face off the material that was in the chuck and then do some boring.

cheers
