  16. Hi I have a problem with a mill-turn program I'm doing , hoping someone can help me ? I completed all ops on left chuck , then did a stock transfer , then went to do a simple facing op on the right chuck , and I get a error saying (this tool is programmed to cut stock in left spindle )? I know what it means but I don't have a option to choose the right spindle in the parameters (axis combination/ spindle origin ) page ? I should be able to pick the right spindle ? but only the left chuck is highlighted
