I would not bother with M3 to much have you ever had a look at the PoKeys57CNC I am going to be changing over to one soon for other things just out of interest, I have not seen any new youtube vids from you lately

that`s better yes there is using a Macro b or a Macro call at the end of the G code or what may be easier is a trigger when the eye see the notches it stop all motion then re zero the axis`s you don't need to re home if the distance between each notch is the same, you just need to do a Work Zero.

if it`s not then you will need to home the axis`s every time you do a run

a macro like what you did would work how mad lou did it with a trigger to make it happen first so trigger, stop all motion de ref the machine re home start again if notches not the same or stop all motion zero all axis back to work zero start again if notches are the same if they are, zeroing in work will not change home if you home first home is where the machine is in spaces, work is where the work is retaliative to home

dandonegan there`s lot`s of ways to do what you wont can you supply more info on how you are going to go about running the wire bender are you going to use a gcode, dro`s to set bend`s
 and how you are moving the wire into the machine.

if you are doing it in a G code just have it goto machine zero at the end of the G code, just give Screwie Louie all and any info you can and ideas
