Re: just found VisualMill/Rhino bundle on sale

I bought the VisualMill/Rhino package yesterday after doing quite a
bit of searching through past posts and seeing good reviews for
VisualMill, and generally good reviews for Rhino. Even if I don't
end up using Rhino that much, it still seems like a decent deal. On
the other hand, I managed to model a quite complex mount for my CO2
laser focusing lens in Rhino last night after only playing with it
for a few hours. Seems easy to use.

Now we both just need to figure out which post-processor to use with
EMC.
