Hi , thank you!!
I was actually at our sister plant yesterday for the day trying to geth this machine going for them, with limited success!
We figured out how to set offsets etc and actually centre drilled a part. but we could not drill the part with the next tool, it seemed like it was ignoring it's tool length offset??
The second toll would always be around 5.5" above the part, (which is the same offset value as the first tool, the centre drill.
I have pasted the program below, if you have any ideas, please contact me, you can email me at my work address:

Many thanks!!
