Bitsetter and large diameter bits issue

Make an aluminum or plastic disc slightly larger than the largest bit you want to use.

Precisely measure the thickness of that disc (I’d use 1/8" / 3mm -ish thick material if I were doing it.)

Put that on the bitsetter button and zero bit.

Add that disc thickness to the Z-height.

Carry on.

Example:

Disc 1.50" diameter, [0.118in / 3.00mm] thick.

Put in bit and put disc on bitsetter button.

Zero using bitsetter.

Go to CM and manually add the thickness of the disc to the Z position.
