Then we're going to do a deep drilling operation, and then we're going to do a tap, and then we're going to do a facing operation, so generally, I'd actually probably prefer to do that facing operation first. And we can easily do that by just clicking on that operation, click on it and just drag it up here to the top, so I'm going to do the facing operation first, then the spot drilling, then the regular drilling, then the tapping, and then we're going to go over here and do some adaptive clearing. Now I did modify the part, and then I just regenerated the tool path, and the adaptive clearing routine we added in the last video automatically updated to this tool path, you can see right here, so we're moving this little half…
