OK , i tried it and after a while i managed to get what your attached picture showed , i outputed to mach3 and ran it.
It machined the vanes in the right place but as pockets where they should have been islands so when the code finished i ended up with a very large pocket with absolutely nothing left inside . I tried running it through with a 6mm cutter in stead of the 10mm tool i used when creating the code but same result.
I then tried selecting only some of the chains around the vanes hoping that it would leave at least something but i keep getting bad lines in the code when i load it into mach3.
Any ideas?
