I need to cut multiple small parts on my lathe and I wanted to do 3 or 
so at a time. For me, the easiest way is a loop. Cut one, move to the 
start of the next part, reset absolute zero on the Z (I always have 
absolute  0 at the start of the part) cut the next, again move and reset 
Z, cut the next, then move to the original start  and reset the Z to 0 
to start all over again.

Tool offset could be used, but have a 6 post tool changer and that would 
mean setting all the tools etc etc

Any suggestions?
