Re: Which CAD/CAM Package - Poll

Hi;

This is a subject which seems to come up every few weeks, and I am
also very intersted in the recommendations which users are offering
too.

Why don't you initiate a 'Poll' (see left menu) listing the half-
dozen options as being vector, Rhino, Autocad etc and let everyone
vote on their preference ??

If you're not sure how to do it, I can set it up for you !

Cheers
