However at this particular point in the program I've got a flat end mill in my spindle, and it would be ideal to finish this radius at this point. So my thoughts on the subject are as follows, for this particular part I cant simply profile it with an end mill nor can I use a radius cutter, this feature would traditionally be milled with a ball end mill. You will have to create some extra curves (curve slice of the rad), add those to the cut pattern, add the surface to axis control, tilt the tool as needed, set the vector depth as required to get the needed portion of the endmill onto the surface.Д¬urve 5X will do what you want.why you want to is another discussion I guess, eg.

I will also say I know there are dozens of alternate methods of cutting a similar feature, however ide like to know how to do this method. The closet I've come is multiaxis flowline with a 90 degree side tilt, this method drives the corner of the tool into the cut, obviously I want the corner of the tool well below the contact point.

Almost like swarf milling, but every few degrees. But I got the idea I want to mill the radius with the side of a flat end mill, tangent to the radius. Ill preface this by saying I'm new to 5 axis. I've got a part, let's say it's a cube with.
