When I start a cut the first thing I do is Home, then I jog all the way to the front and set my axes to zero at the very front left (closest to me).
I want to change the Home position to already BE the left front, to save me all that unnecessary jogging. (I always hated to exercise.)
Is there a reason not to do this? If no, where would I change this? In the GRBL default.h file?
Thanks!

Homing directionThe homing directions are controlled by setting $23. In the default setting ($23=0), the Home location is the Top Right of your work area, with the spindle all the way Up. If you want the Top Left to be the Home location, change the setting to $23 = 1 If you want the Bottom Right to be the Home location, change the setting to $23 = 2 If you want the Bottom Left to be the Home location, change the setting to $23 = 3

You can't change home position without changing the position of the switches as well. I'm sure you took care of that but just so people don't think all they have to do is change some GRBL settings lol.

If it suits you I don't think you'll have any problems.
