Daniel, I am not complaining. I agree with you the wear offsets should follow the flag in LCNC G7/G8. I would love to see work done in this area. To be honest your patch is the only reason I went ahead and started the second lathe retrofit in my shop. It is the way machines are controlled by a machinist. To keep changing the geometry offset to make a good part would not work in a commercial shop. Thanks for your work in this area.
