Cool.
How long does it take to program it to cut 8 at a time?
Is each one a thing, or can you tell it to move 3" and repeat?
The first operation after sawing and deburring is done as a sub program where I just call up different work coordinates for each swivel location. You can see the sharpie doodling on the vise jaws G54, etc. Pretty easy to just keep adding vises and work offsets. The other operations are repeated programming the first one then repeated in a grid. The conversational programming on the Milltronics is much more versatile than I've mastered yet. I'm not really a machinist, just a gunmaker that learned to program.
