    Nope. Not that I've ever heard about.
    Experience is what you get just after you needed it.

    Re: pls, is there a system variable for rapid droop ?

    hey mr Wizard i have runned some trials ( tring to reduce indexing time + others ), but i could not reduce program time by using "droop" and/or "rapid droop"

    it seems that lathes are moving as fast as possible, without messing with those droops ( probably thats why G64 is default, and also "rapid droop" is disabled )

    "rapid droop" = "droop" only when a rapid is involved, and allows a larger ipw (=10mm); how my clearances are pretty low ( 1-2.5mm at toolpath begin, and 0.3mm at toolpath end ), i think i dont need "rapid droop" / kindly
