Thanks to you both for the information, i am now a hobbyist making parts for myself i want to use my CNC lathe for facing and inside turning outside tapers and radius's also threading would be nice my lathe is a rebuilt Denford orac so it's not a big machine but it is solid Brit iron.

Hi Rich and Hood
Thanks for the reply i have always wanted a turn program and i have tried many with out success i looked at Dolphin but at that time the program didn't look to promising i will look at it again, yes i have worked with LC and LT for turn and this is why i am still looking.
