I got really good at brazing carbide boring bars...
I actually did an almost identical oops many years ago on an old gildemeister turning centre. It had a Grundig EPL control, actually a really nice control to use, but a bit odd. Quite advanced in many ways and weirdly limited in others.
One notable omission was the ability to call up a tool with a different offset. I forget what the part was that I was making, but I had a 12mm solid carbide boring bar, and I really needed two offsets on it.
I thought "there HAS to be a way, right?". I scoured the manual and found an m code that purportedly inhibited turret rotation when you called up a tool. Great! I left an empty pocket next to the bar, and set that up as my second offset, edited the code and the toolchange into the program, and hit start.
WAY too much faith in the manual. M code completely ignored, turret rotated in front of the chuck - spinning at about 3k - carbide boring bar rattled off the window and shattered it before landing in the conveyor.
Lesson learned about testing things first...
