Not bad, not great. Was a hair out on the Y. X was perfect.

I just added 0.025mm to the Y and it is near perfect.
So Zeeflyboy your method works... :p

The real test would be machining around my part top and bottom now with out much, if any step in the surface finish once flipped and had the same operation done.

I guess the best way to do the flip is to leave 0.0something on the bottom of my stock and then flip, then remove that last 0.0something and chamfer...?
How deep is your case to cut in one pass? I don't think you will ever get this machine to flip a part and cut from both sides without leaving a step, but you should be able to make it small enough to sand and polish out.

Just to give an idea of the machines repeatability I zeroed in on the reamed hole mentioned above, moved my coordinate system over to the vice, milled out a part that was ~1hr machining time, came back to the reamed hole and it was 0.045mm out in Y and 0.02mm out in X.

You should be able to get the results you're after without probing everything. If this is something you're going to be making multiples of it would be well worth your time in making a proper jig.
