Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm too used to not using tool wear compensation that I forget about that. I only have to compensate for Z and X differences when they are too much of a trouble for the finishing grinding process after, and I usually do that by hand from time to time. I certainly can give cutter compensation a try.
