I have too for some projects. Like carving a blank nut for the z axis to allow sweat brazing a new double nut assembly for 1/2 acme thread, to be used to replace that cheesy z axis screw and nut on the micromill. I had a heck of a time figuring the curve out, until I realized that it was the rear edge of a 1/4" cutter that was doing the cutting and that was effectively a point source. No cutter comp needed. But like a dummy I fought with that for a week.
