CNC Touch Off Plate

I recently made a batch of CNC touchoff plates that have some unique features. Here is the information if anyone is interested.

Also check out the Mach3 tutorials. http://test.themakersguide.com/home/tutorials/module-2

Here is a video explaining what it does.

Thank you. Yes these are for sale at The Makers Guide - Triple Edge Finder - THE MAKERS GUIDE.

There is an introductory sale that ends on 04/15/2013 so it's best to get one soon.

Wasn't sure if there is a support thread for the makers guide but was having a little trouble so just a quick question or two.

Installed the blue probing screen like the videos but the probe doesn't set the DRO's to zero, I have to manually zero X&Y once the probe has touch the 4 sides and is centered.

The Z axis will touch off once and then on the second probe will try to drive the probe into the plate.

Also downloaded version 3.3 of the big-tex screen but the screen loaded thru Mach says 3.2.

Does this sound like a screen issue, machine setup issue or operator? Have used the standard Z probe with pcb plate under the original mach3 screen with no problems. (maybe need to remove old code.)

Thanks, John
