Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Capsmill

Bill,
The free down load demo is NOT usable. It is just a demo to let you get a
"feel" of how the program works. I don't know if the DXF part has all the
right "parts" or not, but even if it does, you would still need a CAD to
import the DXF and a CAM to output G Code so why not just use that CAD. It
sounds like the price of the working version is three to four times BobCAD
or Vector both of which will do more than most of us will ever need.
E mail me for a "List Special" price on BobCAD 17.0.
