Hello
Is it possible, to swap the start-position (angle) for example , 90 degrees on Rotation axis, so that I can handle the opposite Object struckture:
see example green line needs to be rotated - or, If I am terrible wrong - I need a hint how to built a job for bot site of the object, the upper and the inner site.
But, I also need to handle the nobs on the other side :
But I dont know how
Help would be very great.
kind regards

- Create another Job
- make the object invisible (this is not required, but can make things easier)
- turn the model inside of the Job to your liking. You have to use the Placement Dialog, or the properties; Transform doesn't work.

Hey chris, oh, ok. Thats an idea. Thought rotating the model will crash other jobs.
But I pimped the Gcode output, so that it look really nice for a quick'n'dirty job.
If you want to, have a look at the result (without the second job)

Yeahs, I like it too. So I thought, sharing it might make some viewers happy :) It's not perfekt, but I love doing stupid things :)
What I like is, FreeCAD got so much potencial and is already a very tought CADCAM tools!!
Also, the gcode is really smoothe, without any breaks or with less breaks. I will try your hints, many thanks, in fact, I tried it by "tranform".... as you said
