Ok - got it.
The light went on with your explaination of how this is all supposed to be used.
I have the concept now and it makes more sense. Sorry it took ten pages of back and forth for it to sink into my thick skull. I guess I was devising a concept of how to do the job with the tools at hand, saw the offset feature of LazyCam and figured that's how I'd do it. Your process, now that you explain it, is much more sensible. Hopefully others will learn from this. According to what I've read, tool compensation is one of those things people give up on understanding.
Sorry I hijacked the thread but I did set out to quickly point out another example of the problem the thread was started for (honest).
Thanks to both of you.
SO now that we have confirmed that there is a problem (even though it may never be seen because such a small tool is unlikely)...
Is there anyone keeping a master list of all of these issues discovered / suspected / eluded to, so they can be investigated and corrected or are they all scattered amongst the thousands of posts on this site never to be found again?
Mach is a very excellent program. I hope to see it get closer to perfect.
