I'm currently running Solidcam and have recently upgraded to have a turning package accommodate the Tormach Lathe. Can someone kindly post or send me a working gcode with 2~3 tool change that i can test on my lathe? I need to compare the output of the new post processor which may need few more adjustment. Thanks in advance! Code below is what I'm getting when facing.

Have you tried using the conversational?
I pieced all my code together from snippets of conversational and a bit of hand coding.

Lee, sad to say... I don't know how and never used a lathe before... Only learning by watching everyone's video and recommendations here. I'm a CAD user by trade and a guy with tools on weekends... I was hoping someone has a simple washer or a rod in GCODE format just to compare the output format of my CAM package. Lee, if you have a conversational gcode version that you have ran on your lathe, I would appreciate that as well.

Sure.
This is one of my production codes that is pretty simple.
I use it on 9/16" brass rod. It repeats 48 times, but change the number in the first few lines to make it go only once.

It is actually a stepped bushing.

Your tool numbers will most likely be different as well, so be careful with it. It parts off about 1/2" or so from the collet.
