Geof I could have been more descriptive in my response as to the machine reading code from the start to the point of restart with it being on and it not reading to the point of restart with it off, I...

gar you already answered your question, as I see it when one calls up a sub program from the main the machine knows what program to return to after reading the M99 in the sub program, if you have a...

To do what you want you will need to put all code into one program, as this will not start inside a sub program.

This being do to the sub program is called up from the main program and starting...

To do what you want, you need one program and use program restart.
Is there some reason you need these split into different sub programs?
as posted in the other thread you are posting....

You will need to turn on auto restart and select the hole location and cycle start.
The auto restart will run through programing from the beginning with out table movements until just before the...

the G65 is being used so you can modify the variables, using a M98 is taking away this feature so by doing this you have just left what variables in memory unaltered.
However a little editing if you...

This is an example of a form tool made from a spade drill, used in a Milling Machine.
Pre Bore and then interpolate to size stepping in diameter as you go.
It has been a while but I would recommend...

I thought the same at first but there was no chatter with the profile being cut on both flutes, however I did later do to tight radius in some profiles split the profile on both sides so there was...

Does your company want you to program center of cutter path or part edge?

This is programmed in long hand sort of speak with out using subroutines M97 or a M98 as demonstrated by Geof post which...

Here is a little tool that will help in trouble shooting G and M code, only draw back it does not recognize macros.

Sounds like pretty nasty stuff, off hand do you know what SFPM you were using for HHS and Carbide and chip load?

Did somebody say BRONZE ! HMMMM lol

I have not cut any of Stellite products, thanks for the info.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellite paints a different picture of this material.

Is this...

Geof if one cutting edge is lengthen then it will cut oversize do to the stress invoked by the longer cutting edge thus cutting a larger hole. This is why a drill point must be equal on the angle and...

You are a sad child aren't you? lol

I have heard many claim that they can drill a hole smaller then a drill they are using but when confronted to prove it they are unable to and don't know why?
...

Man don't you guys have jobs, I am retired whats your excuse lol

A typical statement by those uninformed, I bet you can drill a hole smaller then the drill size being used.

AMC you really believe this don't you.
The idea you are talking about of making a machining a bushing underside by a few tenths (known as an interference fit) using this there would be no room for...

When it comes to honing the hone will take some out of roundness out but not enough that would be needed in this case.

To effectively let hone do the job they need to do your out of roundness will...

Man here comes that mud hole for you again, you just cannot stay away from it.

Just showed your lack of knowledge about machining again, in this setup the bushing has little to do with the...

Did you see the post where he talked about the vibration?

Even with a bushing to try an keep this tool in line it still failed to do so do to the rigidity of a drill press trying to counter act...

Geof then you have all these machines and yet you go to a drill press with a wood spade drill that you say you can hold a tolerance of +/-.001 what a crock!
You keep making statements with a tool...

How does your post relate to the original post, have you addressed any pros or cons concerning the original post.
If you want to address the issue of your setup then do it in your thread, I have...

Geof I would be very happy not to have to post against something but when I see something that is dangerous I will, as for "competent hands" in this case "competent hands" had nothing to do with it,...

A safer way to have accomplished this task if you insist on using a drill press which we all know is not rigid is to use a hole saw.

The setup you have is not rigid and dangerous, it should come...

Length of the shanks were around 12 inches and shorter, the shorter the better for the application I am discussing this use for, man you guys just love going off topic lol.

Geof that is a spade drill for wood, for clarification the spade drill I am talking about is for metal as see here in the pic.
...

I like the features of the Haas but prefer a Mori Seki for performance and accuracy.

I don't know have anymore ideas to discuss in other threads?
I started one More uses for a Spade Drill how about you? :idea:

Thank you..
