CNC Touch Plate Z Zero after Tool Change with GSender and LongMill
In moving more of my work to my LongMill CNC, I was having to work around tool paths for tool changes until I delved into the macro world for GSender. In version 1.0.5 there's a "Tool Change" setting where you can specify what to do when GSender hits an "M6" tool change command - but Carbide Create doesn't use "M6", it uses "M0".
While I thought this was going to be a downside, I explain in the video a) how to route tool changes through the "Tool Change" code in GSender and b) how leaving it as-is is actually my preferred way to go.
This video was a long time coming as it originally started with an actual project - and ended up being way too long. I pared it down to a simple star using 2 bits and the result more clearly illustrates the ease of re-zeroing Z off the touch plate after a tool change.
