so - here is a video with it all coming together. This is a short gcode program that spots, drills, taps a hole. At this time emc pauses motion when the tool prep is happening - so I modified my ladder so it sends the tool prepared bit instantly but the actual tool change is inhibited until the ladder is done with the tool prep. (if that made sense.) The program is short enough that for a few of the tools the tool change sequence has to wait for the prep.
