The newest version seems to have grown some and now can be gotten with
3-D surfacing and solids drawing. Makes me wonder if this address the
issues you mentioned?

So if a person was looking for a industrial strength mill and turn
package in the $5K - $12K range what would be the current suggested
program? I have Visual Mill 5.0 full (have a spare legal license and
permission from Mecsoft to sell it if someone is looking for a major
deal on it) version but it has no lathe capability and is certainly not
as fast to use as FeatureCAM.
