Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO]Bobcad V.18 any good for a newbie

I expect that VisualMill Basic 5.0 will sell for $995. It should have all
the features of the full package with the exception of some of the 3D
machining functions. If you are not going to machine molds, then the basic
package would be a great buy.
