Back Face  Cycle

This new cycle performs the same roughing operations as the Face cycle, except that the tool starts at the back of the part and steps over in the positive Z direction. A new tool type called Back Face has been added to the Tool Type list. This is the same as the Face tool type except that the Edge Angle is taken from the nine o'clock position. If a custom boundary path is used for the Back Face cycle, then it should be defined to the left of the part path.
