Good luck man. I would love to see wear columns for each of the two mill related offsets length and diameter. Similar to the Haas and many other controls where you just input the base number into the length and diameter columns and then input any adjustments you make at the control into the wear columns for the diameter and length. This in the case of the Haas control would be say -.0002 or whatever and this is calculated in the control for you. It is nice to be able to use this to creep up on dimensions and not have to change the main diameters or length offsets which may work for other things in other parts. It is a real nice and seemingly simple feature. Peace
