There isn't any need to consult a machine manual. Anybody who
actually has real hands on experience setting up a cnc machine or
directly supervises those doing the setups knows the difference between
fixture and work offsets. Obviously you, the self proclaimed guru 
of all things cnc and cad/cam, are excluded.

"Fixture Offset" and "Work Offset" is standard terminology.

I don't miss anything of substance. When I see a post, then 5 to 10
replies to that single post (which you regularly xpost to irrelevant
newsgroups where it has clearly been stated such xposts are unwanted by
the core subscribers of the groups) by ****wits like you, and a bunch of 
replies to your posts from the likes of useless ****s like Joe788 and GK 
it's perfectly obvious to anyone with two halves of a brain cell or more 
to rub together and has read the group for more than two days the thread 
contains absolutely nothing of value. None. Nada. Zippo.

It's entirely a time management thing, man. As in I'm not interested in
wasting it reading a bunch of drivel posted by wankstains like you and
your minions.

Also, only losers and fools like you sit and read every single post made 
to a newsgroup. You've often admitted to being months behind reading and 
replying to legitimate posts while xposting your political kook froth all 
over Usenet several times a day on a daily basis.

Unlike you, I've been using Mastercam on a daily basis for a decade and 
a half which makes me more than qualified to comment on its usage.

See, you're incapable of understating basic Mastercam functionality due
to your lack of experience with it.

But you've never let lack of knowledge about something deter you from
posting stupid ****.

Don't let me get in the way though, feel free to continue.
