Thanks Rich, that was it. I'm glad I can keep my current version on my lathe. It seems every time I change I get bugs that I have to figure out. I installed V3.043 on my mill and now I get watchdog triggers several times a program.
Graham, I'm curious about the program to that generated the code. The feed rate is .0039 which would take about 2 weeks to cut at that rate. Looking over the code there is no tool I could use to cut it. I was planning on using a 1/8" grooving tool. I changed the DXF so code generated from it should work. I extended the section at the front of the part by 1/8" so that the front side of the tool will end up making the proper rounded corner.
