@Andrax
I'll try it, thanks.

@Maha
like @Aciera, I didn't think that was how M6/G43 worked, but I'll try it (again).  I've tried putting G43 on the next line after the Tn M6 (or M6 Tn) line, but that didn't seem to make a difference.

@Aciera
Thanks for pointing that out.  I think I tried the RETAIN_G43 when I first noticed an issue during the G10 L2 WCS flip testing a couple weeks ago.  I know I haven't turned that on/off during this last round of fiddling.

Among the many things confusing me is the F360 post for LCNC turning.  right at the beginning of the post file is this:
var outputG43OnSeparateLine = false;

But the post outputs no G43 at all - neither on the same line or the next.  Something to sort out once I get G43 working.

I'll try everyone's suggestions this evening and report back.  As usual, I'm grateful for the assistance.

Holy #@)(*-balls!!!

Who would have thought RETAIN_G43 = IGNORE_G43?

G43 works on the same line as Tn M6, as well as on the next line.

More work left to do, of course... but after about 3 years I'm finally making chips on this stupid lathe.

Thank you all!
