General Mach Discussion / Re: Lathe Threading With Backlash

I am using g76 and I have backlash enabled. Unfortunately the backlash is taken up just before the chamfer is cut. Which means that the cutter is left at the same location for just a few moments. Since g76 is a canned cycle there is not much I can do. It seems possible that the writers of the canned cycle could take in the backlash before the thread starts to cut. So that when the x axis moves to retract the cutter there is no backlash to take in?
