I'd had spent about 30 seconds looking at the file but seen there were no comments telling me what you were trying to attempt.
I always felt that if a programmer didn't write some notes/comments to remind him of whats going on why should he expect others to try to read his mind. Use line numbers or at least use a Block line number. Makes it easier to find code.
Spend the time to document and write your code in sections. Use M1 (Optional Stop)and "/' (Block Delete) at the end of sections. Makes it easier to prove out a program. and you don't just jump to a new spindle and tool without making sure it is ready and safe to cut.
In the years to come you will find it worth while.
