Does anyone have a routine that can be used to set the x axis with the Z zero plate? This would come in handy for certain tasks.

I have seen some guys take a square of aluminum and make a "Super Z" I believe its called where you can set x,y,and z. I didn't like the design because its meant to set your material Z to the lower left corner and i set mine always in the center. Do a search for "super z" i think it was called.

Here's a routine that will ceter the x,y axis and zerothe Z. I use an aluminum plate with a piece of 2" cooper pipe union. There's lots more info on the forum. I forget who posted this orginally
