Missing Tool

[yorx57]

I don't know if I'm missing something blatant here in X6, but there seems to be a missing tool_typ$. According to the tool "define tool" page, there

are 22 tool types. Undefined is tool_typ$ = 0, so tool_typ$ should go from 0 to 21. Here is a list of what I have for the tool_typ$:

 

0 Undefined

1 Center drill

2 Spot drill

3 Drill

4 Right hand tap

5 Left hand tap

6 Reamer

7 Boring bar

8 Counter bore

9 Counter sink

10 End mill - flat

11 End mill - spherical

12 Chamfer mill

13 Face mill

14 Slot mill

15 Radius mill

16 Dovetail mill

17 Tapered mill

18 Lollipop mill

19 End mill - bullnose

 

21 Engraving Tool

22 Bradpoint Drill

 

Which is my 22 tools!

 

So what tool is tool_typ$ = 20 ??

20 = BLOCK_DRILL # block drilling head

Ahh... thank you. I don't have a Block drill in my define tools page - presumably because I don't have a drill block in my machine def. That would explain why it is "missing"
