    Very cool. I've been trying to find a reason to use a lollipop mill for a while, but I'm using Fusion 360 like a pleeb and it DEFINITELY cannot handle this. I'd like to know what software package calculated this toolpath. It wasn't hand coded. A human would have went right-to-left and completed every hole in one pass.

    I use them for balancing pistons, cutting above the wrist pin boss& underside milling of the dome.
