I just cut a spacer for an intake manifold out of aluminum. Well Actually two. Because I did not catch some spurious "loops" like you mention. The rascals were near the very end of the job. What a
waste of time. I went back and even after I made sure that everything was "trimmed" and whatnot, it still made the loops, but this time it made MORE of them ! I reverted back to my usual cheezy
"Sign Program" which made better code. Sheeez.

This is exactly what can get me crabby. When software developers jump way ahead in development with "new" features without finishing the basics. Seems they are ALL guilty of this. The worst part is
that they often waste no time in "jumping up" the price because of all these wonderful New things and even IF they fix the little problems, you have to fork over more hard earned cash, even if the
new additions are not all that important to you.

John, Whats the latest on Dolphins product ? Still satisfying all your desires ?? I may be looking for another Cad/Cam program that does not break the bank, but gets me by.

Thanks,
