Programming a M97 code - HAAS CNC Lathe example

Hello everyone!! Welcome to my videos on hopefully being able to teach beginners who have never programmed a CNC machine. I myself programmed HAAS CNC Lathes for over 15 years and I started from scratch not knowing anything about writing codes!! (Aggghhh!!) I had to manually write new programs at the machine controller and that's kind of what these videos are about. Most places now probably have a dedicated person for writing programs and drawing blueprints...but, If you are just starting out and need to learn how to program by hand, I hope these videos will help :-)
In this video, I explain what a M97 code is and a short programming example. Hopefully it will make sense after you watch me ramble on....ha!!
I realize this may be a bit more advanced video for beginners....but, I still figured it could help out.
Please be sure to check out my playlist of my other CNC videos!!

Cool. Best explanation I've ever seen. Your way is more reliable than some loops that actually change G54 and cause problems if the person forgets to reset G54 if needed.
