Charlie, that is epic!!! Can't wait to give this a whirl. Thank you!!!

Hey Charlie,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I'll send you that file when I get done this cut. Yeah, lol, this same cut.  But while I wait, I want to ask about those rapids.  I'm using rest machining and would have thought that would not rapid all the way up to the stock surface but instead rapid to just above the roughing pass. And yet, as you see, the rapids are absolutely killing me here. How can I keep those to just above the material left during the roughing pass?

Hey ya'll. 

First time posting; love PixelCNC!  Here's a ducky I'm working on. I was able to mask off a lot of non-ducky canvas so my roughing cut didn't waste time on it which was great.  But then for my refining pass, the toolpath having to visit the edges of that non-ducky portion became a massive waste of time.  

A feature to confine toolpaths to a selected area (perhaps defined using a path?), like ducky only, would be incredible. It's much needed.  

Here I've circled in red the waste areas where the refinement cut is spending time unnecessarily.   If there is a way to avoid this issue, please let me know!  Cheers.
