V bits why are all bits not in the set up

[tiggeranne23 (Stephen chew)]

Can all v bit settings be added to carbide create I have purchased a set with 20/30 and 45 degree bits that are not in carbide. Have I wasted my money if I cannot use them

You can open the tool database and add these bits to the list. Add a new bit or copy one of the existing ones and change the included angle and diameter and assign a new tool number

There is a 30 degree V endmill in Carbide Create, but it’s entered as an Engraver:

I entered it as a normal V endmill:

using the settings:

which should work as a guide for the tooling which you have purchased.
