Hello,

I've been working at the G7x cycles again. I've finally fixed the handling
of radius compensation. (I think)

Whenever I use the G71, followed by the G70 cycle I always shift the
G71 cycle to the left to prevent overloading the tool on the vertical
sections.

For example:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G52 Z-0.25              ; shift to the left
G71 Q100 Z0.5 X#<_initial> D0.3 I0.5 R0.3
G92.1                   ; reset shift
G42
G70 Q100 Z0.5 X#<_initial> D0.3 P1
G40
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So far this method has served me well, and I'm thinking about adding
this shift as a parameter to the G71/G72 cycles. For example E0.25 in
this case.

I am open to suggestions however, so if anyone has a better idea now is
the time to tell me :-)

regards,

Mark
