Hello, I'm trying to create toolpaths with 3mm endmill, but I cannot seem to edit tool diameter with the available toolbits in FreeCad's library.
I heard you can create your own toolbit, do I have to create a model and then convert to toolbit?
https://easyupload.io/utg4xg found this IGS file of a 3mm endmill, wondering if its possible to create tool from this?

Re: Create ToolBit in FreeCad
The referenced toolbit appears to be a very ordinary straight bit. No problem at all to create and edit. However, you should use a very recent version of FreeCAD 0.20 from the development section of the downloads. There have been a lot of updates and improvements to the toolbit facility over the past year.
Make sure you are following the latest instructions (only one week old as this is written).
