New to board and I have a problem

:o So they do.

I downloaded a couple of programs to generate a tool path here....

The context suggests that that's a tool path set-up for a form cutter (i.e. tapered tool).  The slot cutters are straight-sided, so that tool path might not be appropriate.

Yes, I communicated with Chuck, and he told me the tool path was for a straight flank cutter.
