Trying to set up a Left hand cutting tool

[lavrgs]

I'm getting an 907 error that states I don't have enough X axis travel. I am trying to use a turning tool that cuts on the left and may not have it set up correctly. The error says Line 14 but it's on the line starting with N60

I reduced the x value and was able to get past it. But I have Z axis limitations...longer stock will help

I am close to testing my prototype probe arm, unfortunately my probe hit the floor during my fit checks and would not turn on. I haven’t decided on the best way to get the probe out of the way. It is in a cheap boring bar holder that could be cut down. I can loosen the clamping screw or take the complete holder off…or finish the slots to slide it up
I have a question about how cnc12 knows which direction to move for each tool.
For example for a LH tool the motion would be away from the spindle. Is this determined by the tool table?

What about measuring neutral tools in Z? My current approach is to measure the leading face and modify the offset by half the holder width.
