+
+- Make sure you have your tested machine selected
+- Open the developer console
+- Run the following code: `kiri.api.conf.get().device`
+- Right click on the object and select `Copy object`
+- Make a new file in the `src/kiri-dev/<mode>` directory, with the name of your machine, no spaces or special characters, and a `.json` extension.
+- Paste the copied object into the new file, and save it.
+- Publish your changes to a git repo

+ops, not to be confused with [opps](https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/opp-opps) are the operations applied to a model to remove material. The operations tab also contains meta operations that represent parts of the manufacturing process, but do not nessecarity generate toolpaths.

+
+
+## Global Operations
+
+Operations that apply to all objects in the workspace. 
+
+### Outline
+
+![](/img/CAM/outlineExample.png)
+
+The Outline op generates a toolpath surrounding the edges of a part. It is highly configurable and can select both internal or external edges specifically. The Outline operation is great for:
+
+- Cutting out many objects at once
+- Generating a rough/finishing pass on an object
+- Easily avoiding spefic parts like pockets or holes
+
+## Specific Operations
+
+### Outline
+ 
+## Laser Mode Only
