Well, I'm getting used to MasterCAM at any rate.

But I found it doesn't tolerate chain discontinuities either.

I was attempting to generate a complex curved surface one day and found that
it simply would not work irregardless of the break size. I found the break
by enlarging the view as much as possible and was JUST BARELY able to
discern where it was. After fixing that, it worked just fine..and the
generated program worked perfectly on the MAXNC!
