I'm frequently using G43 Hn (n-tool number) and this applies tool length offset 
from tool table (W), and this also applies offset distance to W axis. What 
bothers me is that after this G43 Hn, I always have to follow it with G0 W0 
which moves Z axis upwards (negative Z) for a distance in W axis which came 
from W column from tool table, and after that I actually get the right offset 
(at tool tip). Is there a way where this W (tool length) would be directly 
accepted and compensated after G43 Hn command, without extra G0 W0?I'm not 
familiar how "commercial" controllers are working, but I think there is tool 
compensation at the tool tip right after G43 command is executed?
