But ensure you have the correct signed direction of the value in :-
- G54 Z field ( normally-ive ) ( distance from reference point on spindle to the part origin )
- length offset #18 field ( normally +ive ) ( distance from reference point on spindle to the tool tip )

Thanks Guys! I've updated my post and only gave me an option (True/False) to specify the "Tool start level" which is 1"(above the part) after G43 H1 which then follows up with Z0.5 after M08, i assume this is fine. I've included my new code output below with additional tool change.. the reason for that.. tool/fixture offset seems screwed up after watching multiple YouTube videos and I'm really hoping that the code is causing it. Can someone look into my code if there's something odd/recommended changes? I can only test the code on the machine when i get home.. would be great if i can get the code output validated before i experience another close call crash.
