Simple program to cut a Ø1.175" pocket 1/4" deep using 3/8" end mill.
G0704 machine running UCCNC:

UCCNC stays in incremental mode during the Z axis moves and cuts a 3/8" deep pocket (should be .250 deep.
Also the machine returns to Z.625 at end of program, should return to Z1.
I use a variation of this program daily on Fanuc and Maho controllers.
There's a reason I like to make Z moves in absolute but I want to keep this short.
Thanks - also I'm a "newbie" with UCCNC, just finished G0704 conversion about a month ago.
Been running CNC machines since 1986.

Gerry - tried it out and works perfect.
Fanuc controller likes it too.
I'll make that adjustment in the future.
Thanks "very much"
