I've got Bobcad V16.1, and have pretty much figured it out. Some things
are hard
to do, but standard 2.5 D stuff is no problem to me any more. I have
figured out
how to use it with cutter radius compensation, too. I'd be glad to help
with what
I know. I don't think there is that much different in V17.
