Gerry,
Thanks. So I need Rhino3d, RhinoCAM and Mach3 to complete the package. I was unsure whether I needed Mach3 with RhinoCAM.
Mike. Didn't realize that this was specifically for MadCAM. I just saw the Rhino3D - prog and design header and didn't look any further. I was also a bit pissed off when I posted so I didn't read the header all that carefully. I think I toasted a bunch of components I need to build my driver boards, so I wasn't very happy about that. And I had just gotten through with Xylotek support regarding their boards and they weren't able to give me a really good answer on the RihinoCAM question (at least not one that I understood, but I may also have been asking the question wrong too) so I grabbed the first Rhino3D design forum I saw and posted knowing someone who really knows his stuff, like Gerry, would be here to answer the question.
Mike, so it sounds like MadCAM functions like a Rhino pluggin? Which is what RhinoCAM is also supposed to do (I haven't loaded it up yet, but their documentation looks like it is pretty easy and direct to use).
I will have to check it out.
Thanks
