 Fortunately i had some back ground in drafting the old fashion way 30 years ago. I found PIXELCNC very easy to understand and it has provided me with a confidence to try more designs, create etc. It has given me an understanding of terminology and what it means. Just what i needed.

 It is a thrill the first time you make your first cut or machine movement for us do it yourself people.
I do this for a fun retirement.

Jumping into trial by fire can be intimidating as well as discouraging.

AutoDesk Fusion 360 has a lot of options and can be very intimidating for someone with no background at all in CAD/CAM CNC ROUTER etc.
I am sure Fusion 360 is just right for others as well.

P.S.
I will figure it out, but i still can't get an image to load in Fusion 360!
Patience will prev ale. Maybe!!!

2 hours of clicking and you tube in between and still no image loaded. FRUSTRATED ALL READY but not giving up yet. Even the you tube directions for loading/inserting SVG images didn't work!

Back to inkscape and PixelCNC, need to get some things made. Granddaughter coming today and will want to make some things so i need to have my part done.

I loaded the hobbyist version Autodesk Fusion 360 again yesterday ,still confusing to me with all of the different terminology etc. I understand some of it but can't even figure out how to get something started on the canvas,
Looks like a very large and confusing learning curve to me.
I will try to find time in between things to look at it some more.

thanks, you haven't steered me wrong yet. Last time i checked it out was about 2-3 months ago and my skill level at that time wasn't the greatest and still need to learn a lot more. I have learned a bunch.
I will review it again.
