What would be my simplest option to obtain G71 cycle?

I hear that ver2.9 has it built in. Is this my best route?

Yes.

See buildbot.linuxcnc.org for instructions on how to start using the dev version.

Would it be as simple as:

Make a back up copy of my config folder with the .HAL and .INI files

Install/replace my ver 2.7 with 2.9

Then copy over the backup folder?

Even simpler. Make a backup copy of the configs just in case. But they won't be overwritten.

A script will ask to run to update the 2.7 config to the 2.8 format.

Will it have any effect on my current Lathe set up, will everything stay as they were?

Everything should "just work". But make a backup of the config folder just in case.
