Interesting how this comes up every July!  Well, no question the 
touch-off menu in Axis works correctly, but I'm trying to figure 
out how to do it from within a G-code program.  I will have to 
experiment with it some more next time I have the machine set up.

And, yes, I have a piece of G-code laboriously created with 
Bobcad/CAM to cut out a pattern of 12 pie-shaped holes for a 
3.15" boxer fan.  The center of the fan is coord (0,0) and I 
just set up a coord system for the offset to the center of the 
fan's location.  I did it using Axis' menus, yesterday, to get 
the job done, but now I WANT to know how to create the relative 
offset in the G-code file.  This is for Aram Kasparov's servo 
box that I'm building.  I prefer to just make boards and let the 
buyers do all that sheet metal stuff, but sometimes people 
really want a complete box made and filled with boards.  So, I 
don't make these often, and never two the same.
