Side Finish
Use Side Finish to remove side stock left by a previously
programmed pocket cycle.
Side Finish must be programmed immediately after a compatible
pocket cycle that has left side stock. All side stock is removed in one
pass if no DepthCut is specified. Multiple finish passes are possible
using SideStock.
Islands definitions apply to this cycle, and will be avoided, and sides
finished if active.
Islands need to be re-defined after the pocket cycle, before the Side
Finish call.
