Thanks! Alan. One more question. If I reset all the axis to the part
that is being machined. Then the homing function is a wast of time.
Unless CNC-Pro still remembers where the home position is after I
change the 3 axis.

I will take some pictures of this mill and place them on a web site
for all to laugh at. You must keep in mind that I built this only to
teach me things about CNC.
