Hello,
I'm looking for a poor mans multilayer. I would like to see some examples of ways to handle multilayer welding without the paid option.

Hi . I take it you don't want to pay for Comarc ,Touch sensing & multilayer welding option.
Then use "P" variables and Shift the first welding run to the positions for the other weld runs. It is not as good as sensing but it works provided base metal & welds remain relatively constant.
Hint - use longer stick-out to compensate for small variations. -
Use COMARC on first pass. At each point, capture the COMARC shifted position into a P variable (GETS PX100 $PX000). You can then run these points in backward order or forward order and use SFTON to shift second, third pass, etc.
Not as nice as multilayer option but I have seen it work.
