I really appreciate all the reply's. I read them all. I have been super impressed with q-cad/cam but I realize I need to get a cam program that will help me out. Going to get the Cambam software. Been studying it for days, and I think it will really get me where I need to be with my projects. Still going to use my Q-cad program, I really like it. At first...I was using Lazycam. Spent so many hours reading and studying it. I even bought the Wizards. But kind of tricky to learn, Then I bought D2NC, So impressed with this software. It allowed me to have more consistent progress. But still can't do all that I need. Then I bought q-cad/cam...Love the cad and cam but I can't get the cam to load properly. Hoping that Cambam will get me going. Really looks super detailed...been reading everything about it. Funny, In the beginning I thought I could just draw something and my cnc machine would carve it. Each step along the way has taken me lots of hours. studying, reading, testing. Bound and determined to become a really good cnc guy. Thanks so much for any tips...Also huge thanks to Artsoft for steering me in the right direction. Every time I use Mach 3, It amazes me. Peace out!
