    How to set tool start/home from center not bottom left

    As the title states I could use some help on having the tool start/home from the center of the part instead of the bottom left corner.

    I am trying to drill new holes in my base table to mount my extruded t slot aluminum table to and need to start the tool path in the center of the table.
    Easier for my senerio.

    Thanks for any help,
    Eric
    Theres a good side to every bad side, you just have to look around the corner.
