This is a practice exercise video solution.

In Fusion 360, we're going to start with profile simulate for this practice.
00:11
We want to make sure that setup 1 is selected and go to actions and simulate.
00:16
From here, we're going to play through each of the tool path, making sure the material is getting removed.
00:22
We can speed up or slow down the process and take a look at the results when finished.
00:27
If we view this from the front, you can see that the material has been removed but we still haven't parted off the back of the stock.
00:35
We can also see that a tool that had a small fillet on the corner was used for this groove and it didn't completely remove the material.
00:43
Lastly, we can see that the bore in the front of the design has not been completely removed either.
00:49
These are all areas that would continue to need development using new tool paths or adjustments to previous tool paths.
00:55
This helps us better identify stock that's left behind.
00:58
Using the stock mode comparison and allowing us to see what material is left behind in blue,
01:04
showing us everything that's been removed in green that matches our part.
01:08
From here, we're going to close simulate and make sure that we save the design. If any changes have been made.
