Retain starting position from hole to hole when set. 
ie retain starting angle on XY plane as determined by first hole. 
Minimising rapids between holes gains nothing over all and leads to rather arbitrary starting on subsequent holes.

🟩 Core Essentials

Features necessary to perform the required function

Feature Description Assessment
Tool Definition Define and manage tools such as end mills, drills, inserts
Tool Numbering Assign tool numbers for G-code output

🟨 Professional Grade

Features usually present or expected in the state-of-the-art applications

Feature Description Assessment
Tool Metadata Define shapes, material, holding, and additional metadata
Feeds & Speeds Suggestions Recommend cutting parameters based on tool, material, and operation
Tool Import/Export Synchronize tool definitions with machine or external databases
Tool Libraries Manage sets of tools as reusable libraries
Probe Tool Definition Identify probe tools and suppress spindle start
Drag Knife Support Define drag-knife tool and generate accurate offset-aware toolpaths
Separate tool preparation from tool loading With larger machines, a tool magazine may take a significant amount of time to index in preparation for a tool change.
We should support separating the calls to 'call for a tool' from the call to 'load the tool'.

🟦 Next-Level CAM

Features that would exceed industry standard
