We use a 45 degree neutral Capto tool with a .625 RCMT insert across intermittent cut. the B length is -.3120 .We use a right angle head on a job and the stop block wants to hit the part when we try to use this button tool at 45 degrees. We thought that we could just use the tool at B-0-, but when we tool eye the tool the B length is a positive .3120 if we try to run like that the tool is way away from the part when it starts and doesn't finish the face all the way. If we change the sign of the B length to negative it works fine, we just cant get it to tool eye with a negative B length. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
