Mill/Turn part stock changes on its own

I'm having a problem with a mill/turn part.

Anyhow I'm doing some turning, then milling, and then turning again. When I do my
Step4 Finish Face pass after milling it doesn't see the material there. If I
move this pass before milling it works fine, finishing the entire face. Can anybody
spot what I'm doing wrong? I'm finishing the faces in Teach Mode for a work around.

Look at the spinning 3D workpeice after Step2B and then after Step3A. Look how the
shape changed in the locations that were not milled in Step3A

I'm using NX4.0.4.2 Thanks
