I apologize for posting someone else's work here and without his permission. I can not find his thread anymore because there are so many of them. Again I apologize for posting his work without his permission:
the codes for auto tool zero

please help me what to do with this? What do I need to click in mach3? I really wanted to try his codes seems like it is VERY GOOD!
