So while it sort of works, that tells me my math is busted.

Cutoff will be messy with my cutoff knife, but will still waste less steel. That also means more time to think on this as its probably going to be not more than 2 pockets a day even after I figure out why I'm getting following errors at 1/3rd the Z axis's speed ability.
