- This is a reply to @TITANSofCNC for this video • Macro Programming is t... . This is real macro programming. Let me explain, the thread cutting cycle is taken out to a separate program and installed as a custom G-code. And directly in the main program, sectional processing is looped. Of course, this program was written for Swiss-type machines, but it can be demonstrated on a regular lathe.

00:36 - Clean turn top
00:50 - Cyclic processing

you have done well!! You will always get smartarse people that don't understand macro programming. This is very useful for long threaded bars as it prevents vibrations within the thread.
Why not G76?
G76 does not support radial movement at the beginning of the cycle. You will either get a groove or break the insert.
There's a thing called tailstock.. Anyway, congratulations, you made 2 min part in 11 mins.
Read the description of the video first. This is a program for a Swiss type machine, there is no tailstock.
