Jon,
I will be able to see the chatter/hunting in the pid.error signal in Halscope,
so I will try to reduce it with less d-term and try adjusting FF2 to compensate
for f-error.
Right now my values are roughly p-term=8500, i-term=375, d-term=45 -
I am using the amplifiers in velocity mode wit
when the machine enters this state it will repeat the incorrect behavior

Better ask someone that knows which memory tester really wrings out

Thanks for those many great suggestions. I think the cleanest solution
would be to align the tools in Y and use the lathe tool offset in X.
Unfortunately there does not seem to be an easy solution for X and Y
