Hello Mike

I finally found a "BACK" Turret that just may work without to many modifications.

Thanks !!

I've been away for some time but if you truly want this transparent then you need to replicate the toolchanger hardware and not touch the PP code at all.

this is not hard to do. look at the zbot code and you can reverse if from there.
