However, if you don't home your z axis, your MPOS may be set to zero wherever it was when you turned it on. If that is right next to your spoilboard, jogging down to your zmin will crash the bit. Adding z-max to your homing routine means your MPOS z=0 will always be at the top of your z travel. This is how most professional CNC machines usually operate for safety reasons.
Also if you want to do semi-automated tool changes with a fixed probe location, the machine must know it's absol
