Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] sort of 4th axis for my Taig

Very annoying but it's S.O.P. in selling. They grab you with the advantages and
only at the last minute when you're "sold" give you the price. You often have to
put the item in your shopping cart to get the price. One more click and you've
bought it - the system is aimed at the impulse buyer as well.

Someone will do that CAM package, maybe people are working on it now.

Been cruising around the onEcnc site.

It's so tedious when they don't display pricing, and you still battle on
trying to find it.

Can anyone say what it costs?

Personally I like the advertising and looks of Rhino. All well explained,
and pricing upfront.
Ahhh. not. Just looked, and now their pricing is hidden too.

Houses, CNC machines and cars cost 10x as much, and one can see the price in
any media, so why the secret on CAD/M software pricing?????

It will be awesome if a open CAM package is developed one day. Knock all
these guys out the water.

Regards
Roland
