I've made parts with FreeCAD and PyCAM. FreeCAD is pretty great, PyCAM still has a ways to go. If you are going to use PyCAM, clone their git repo on Sourceforge, don't use their latest published deb, it's out of date. I feel sanguine about Dan Falck's FreeCAD + OpenCamLib. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
