    Yes there is and it's really simple to do. Infact it's something you should get in the habbit of doing if long or important jobs just incase power or PC crashes.

    Save the work offset. On the Standard Mach 1024 screen set you'll find it OFFSET's Tab on lower right under SAVE WORK OFFSETS.
    On Gerry's screen you'll fing it on the small Tab offset's Tab again Save OFFSETS.
    If you notice when you close Mach you get the message box "Fixtures Changed" and "Save Fixture" option this is the same as Saving work offsets.
    See pics.

    Charlie the Road runner file uses Imperial measurements and if using metric units then while Axis scaleing will increase the size it doesn't change the feed rates so you'll need to do this manually by editing G-code.
