In this second video in the series, Marc from ‪@GCodeTutor‬ explores the choices we have when building the program header.

While there's no single best way to put together the header part of our programs, using the same style across the shop for all programmers can help avoid confusion and make it easier to work together. Even if your shop uses setup sheets, keeping the same information in the header can help with tracking changes, setup times, and consistency.

In this video, Marc looks at the different types of information that can be put in the header section to make our work easier. He talks about using a standard header style and gives examples of what information can be included, like the programmer's name, date created, program version, and machine settings.

In this video, Marc looks at our options for what information can be put in the header section to help make our lives easier.
