>Try Bobcad Version 18. Its a pretty good entry level CAD/CAM program. The user interface is satisfactory. The 3-D portion is a bit weak as well as the 4th axis rotary portion and I say this because both of them are quirky however, they do work. But it does offer a post processor for virtually any machine control language. Overall for the money its a good program and the training CD's are excellent. If you are just wanting to do profile machining of different 2-D shapes it would work very well for that. Just draw or import a drawing, run it through the Bobcad post processer for your control and its ready to machine.
