    I want to add one of those springy probe things to my workbee/blackbox setup. I want the Openbuilds one to define my work coordinates and the cheap (unless this works the way I think it will and then I'll buy a nicer one) springy one that I'll put in one spot so that I can write a macro that will go there, find the current height, wait for me to change out the bit, and re-probe. Tiny amount of math, move to new zero, and set z0.

    I can just wire this in with the existing probe, right? Or am I just looking at emi hell by doing that?
