Swore tool presets were a lazy shortcut until I used my Haas VF-2 to crank out 50 identical parts without tweaking a single offset
After fighting with manual adjustments for 8 months on the same job in Cleveland, I finally loaded a saved preset and it ran flawless for 47 cycles straight, so has anyone else found a reason to trust the canned cycles over doing it by hand?

Manual offsets are like a bad relationship, you keep thinking you can fix things but really you're just wasting time until you try the easy way and everything works.

Manual offsets teach you the fundamentals and sometimes the hard way is the only way to really understand the machine.
