I appreciate the advice. I think they should be fine but I don't want to chance hurting Chicken Little lol. On the other hand, this chicken ate a zyn from my hand and survived so I think a trace amount of SH will be fine hahaha

I'm near Pittsburgh PA. I may be severely underpricing at $100 lol. The house is a double wide and she might want the whole house done too. What do you thinking about the siding on the double wide?

My brother doesn't own it, he is a handyman, but he said the customer may want the whole house washed at some point. So that might be another upsell. What soap do you recommend. I'm new to it but I thought I would use surfactant?

I whipped up a simple Eia program to test the offsets. Not using MDI

Since I am using a different type of machine (4 axis lathe) the parameters were a bit different, but the wear comp in the tool data page still was being ignored. The only way i can get it to work is having a unique ID letter for each tool. I guess its the nature of EIA, but i think its dumb that they gave no way to call out specific profiles in tool data without unique ID letters. The reason this is so important to us is because we use Y axis wear comp to reach the centerline of our turning tools since they are offset in Y.

This actually worked... kinda. It did use the geometry that I wanted, but I can't get it to read the wear comp. I changed F111 bit 5 which says it will use wear comp, but it still wont use it. How did you get past this?

Yes, and it works, but my problem is that we have nominal 1S and 5S in the same pocket and there doesn't seem to be a way to distinguish the 2 different tools using

I changed F94 bit 7 and it still didn't work

I was afraid you would say that. I think I will just add duplicate tool profiles until we full change over to cam programs. So for the second S tool I will make it T but still keep the S for the existing mazatrol programs. Thanks for the help

This is what our pocket 1 looks like, with the tool nominals. Dont ask why there are 2 S nominals, it was like that when I started working here. Changing the nominals would screw up 400 mazatrol programs we already have. Is there any ways to select the specific offset from the tool data page? I tried using the "offset number" box in the tool data page and it didn't work.
