The more important thing is understanding why it works, because you will have 
similar issues with all the other axis, and you want to make sure you have the 
correct mental model, so you can also switch it around and shift it, when you 
home in negative and/or not to 0

HOME_OFFSET is the position assigned to the place where homing is sensed, aka 
the position of the homing sensor.

When homing, Joint does it's thing to read the homing sensor, as soon as it is 
done with the sensor it sets the current position to be HOME_OFFSET and then 
moves over to HOME position.

That's my mental model, hope it helps...
