Ah, excellent. I did not know about this function.
But reading the Mach handbook I see the G51 axis scaling command. It is modal so it looks like I could just do a G51 X-1.0000 before the rear tool operations, and then a G50 to cancel when I go back to the front tool.
Thank you for pointing me in that direction.
I still think that I will reverse the X sense in hardware so that the upper toolpost will be the "front" one.
Best regards,
