    I seen where you posted about some person criticizing how you pronounced words. Just so you know that 99.9% of the people who watch your videos really enjoy and learn from them! Please don’t stop helping the rest of us because of that person.

    This was SO useful, thank you so much, had this exact question earlier today in the Saintsmart CNC FB group as I need to remove a part, paint it and put it back to do an engrave pass. This is fantastic.

    When i learned one thing in my CNC Apprenticeship, making stuff like this is one of the most important parts for actual work later on

    Nice video, but another way is to have the corner of the inside be your 0, 0 when you make the fixture and document what those coordinates are.<br><br>But as a machinist that runs industrial equipment, I like your channel and have shared it with many people getting started.

    Brilliant. &nbsp;I was thinking if that could be done about a week ago to make things easier. &nbsp;Very timely video as always. &nbsp;Cheers. &nbsp;Thanks for pushing me in the right direction.

    Clever with the macro bit, I like that you can shut it off and turn it back on.

    Thanks James! This was enormously helpful. It really helped demystify some of the basics of setting home and repeated cuts for me. Cheers!

    Nice one James. &nbsp;I setup a similar thing a few weeks ago. I start most of my jobs from the centre origin, so have got multiple macros setup for each job. &nbsp;I’m making clocks of different diameters at the moment, (ie 12 &amp; 6 inches) so have a Macro labelled for each one that takes the machine through the homing process &amp; then to the workpiece centre. Soooo much easier &amp; faster to get started 😊

    Another awesome video James. &nbsp;I have been manually homing my machine, afraid to press the &quot;home&quot; button in GCS. &nbsp;Very helpful to know how it should be used!
