That is also likely true, if those angles are set in the tool.tbl. TBT the lack of a known orientation for 0.00 degrees (until this thread) and the weird results I got by looking up the chip and putting that raw data into the tool.tbl, (and I don't believe I have any VNMG chips as I usually order the wider diamond shape) and the wasted material that gave me, has since precluded my doing so, simply because what I was doing was wrong in light of 0.00 being along the Z axis. I don't have an instant project to test how that works, but I will try it next time I do. It would be a great help to me, if the boxes these chips came in had not only the makers part number, but also the "VNMG/whatever" that specifies the shape, size and the tip radii, and side angles printed right on the box. But having that info right on the box w/o have to go to the makers web site be be enlightened, thats pretty rare if not entirely missing. Point being that this stuff can run north of $200 for a box of 10, so how much more would it cost to print a proper label? Not having it is bs, and wastes a persons time trying to find it online. And this is turning into a rant on my part, sorry. > http://www.aydosa-tools.com/index.php/mvjnr-l-93-external-top-clamp-tu >rning-toolholder -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
