Back at it this morning.

Continued
That first one completed as expected, same settings that gave me a clearance hole is now too tight.
Next run, all I did was delete the face contour and create 3 closed chain for the three holes.
Post process failed
Restart Fusion and now using the original NC from the mfg workspace it worked.
I don’t know if it’s F360 flaking out, or the Post processor.
I do know that the Post is repeatable with not creating a program speed, did it 15 times yesterday and the day before.
Save your f3d after it failed and post it.
Can’t.
Now it’s working like it should I think, I have been sticking with Face Contour rather than chain.
I have spent too much time trying verify my findings and make it repeatable. I have been working on re-doing my hole fitment with the face contour as making 24^2 chains is less than appealing.
On another note. 100a cutting with 105a torch parts (swirl ring, electrode, nozzle, shield - yes I double checked all of them) makes a bad taper in 1/2" - which is odd as I was getting pretty good with the 1" thick.
However over amping the 85a torch parts at 100a, makes a more accurate hole with less taper. Like .05" tighter at the top with .63 ish at the bottom cutting a .66 hole. Go figure.
100a the only way I could get clearance was a .71 hole with a .63 ish exit. Too sloppy.
