The feature you're referring to is a 'swept' section. It'll have to be
derived from some 'Helix' function. (i.e. screw threads are helix forms). I
don't know if MasterCam does that though. If you're going to try to
generate that on a mill, you'll probably need to have a 3-axis head (pitch,
roll, yaw), as well as a 3-axis table.
