Polls / CAD /CAM Software at a student price
« on: May 23, 2009, 01:20:44 PM »
So your a MACH, home CNCer and you'd love to be able to have the functionality of a $4,000 CAD/CAM program, but you'll never recoupe that sort of cost, so you don't get the full potential from your machine.  If you were offered the program at the student discount price would it be more obtainable?

Would you add your name to an email to Mecsoft (or other software manufacturer), requesting a discount for the 'hobby' user?

Are you prepared to promote the software and mention them in your Youtube video?

G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / Inverting the model
« on: July 16, 2007, 10:45:05 AM »
Hello, I'm just looking into building a big 3 axis machine. I want to be able to digitise a model then invert it to create an opposite side.  To be specific,  car side skirts.  I design and manufacture car body styling. The problem is you need pairs of opposite parts like lights, side skirt, mirrors, even bumpers. It would save me a lot of time if I only had to build one side.

So my question is can Mach3 digitise then invert the image? or will I need more software... if so what would reccomend?
