Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Free Software

That sounds like a good deal....I guess that means I can use my DMX -15 scanner mill/Rhino software to draw and machine a part?

The deal is that we made arrangements with TGS, the publishers of
Amapi 3d Solid modeling software, with MicroMouse, the people
responsible for providing us with StlTrans, and with ourselves for
StlWork, to provide a free copy of each program, fully registered to
the winner of a contest in the months of September and October.
During the month of September, there were no entries. There was only
about 2 weeks left after the announcement. This month there have
only been a couple of entries.

All three programs have a full working 30 day demo available for free
download. Full contest details are on our web site at
http://www.stlwork.com
Processing a demo request for Amapi will get you a current code &
pointers to multiple mirror sites for download.

Sold alone the programs are worth $399 for Amapi, $250 for StlWork,
and $99 for StlTrans. Nearly $750.00 of software that I have
personally tested and called the best of breed(more like only under
$500) to offer at $499 bundled. This includes ALL 3 programs & that
is the prize too.

The learning curve on StlWork is about an hour. On StlTran it's
about 8-30 hours, because it does some pretty wild stuff with 3D
extruded letters, beveled 3D objects, GIS mapping data, and raster to
vector conversion to 3D objects. Use of Amapi is not even required
to enter or win the prizes. All you have to do is find a "cool"
vrml, 3ds, dxf or stl model, machine it, and send me a picture. We
will even refund purchase price if you have previously purchased the
software.

Another PS-The Bobcad Video training tapes are 1/2 price through the
end of the month ($150)
