correct me if i am wrong if your not feeding the part to the cutter how would climb milling take place?
Anthony.

While you were not actually "climb milling" feeding on the Y axis.
The X axis feed you used created a similar interaction of the cutter and the material. Flipping the block would eliminate the difference.
Also, if you plan to use a slower cutter speed you have to use a slower feed.
Good luck, I hope your next post announces success.
