Hi im looking for a few sample programs for a Citizen Cincom F-12 or an F-25

[not_in_use]

I run an old (1984) Citizen F-20, if that'll help. Twin turret single spindle, live tooling.

[jdcowles]

Yes that would help

Ok. I'll pick a couple and send them to you Monday. I'll try and comment them out as best I can. I don't know about your controller but ours won't allow man-readable comments.

Thank you

Thanks for the program, it helps a lot. there's a machine shop I sometimes work part time hours at has an F12 and F25 and my full time job has has lathes and mills. I'm hoping to get my programing skills up to par.
