    What software are you using?

    Hi everyone,

    I wanted to do a quick poll and see what software everyone is using and how they would grade it. (I know this is very subjective, but still).

    If the answers could be formatted along the lines of:

    Cad Software
    Name:
    2d/2.5d/3d:
    Grade (1-10):

    Cam Software
    Name:
    # axis:
    Grade (1-10):

    Controller Software
    Name:
    Grade (1-10):

    Other Software
    Name:

    If anyone wants to add additional details, please feel free to.

    Please respond to this message and we’ll get a good comprehensive list of software being used which will benefit everyone. Thanks.
