    I had to vote for both because its always something different every day. If I can get by with 2 - 2.5d I will. Sometimes its just not cost efficiant to program in 3d , even tho the end result of the drawing is better

    No, LOL, It was in flight before I was born. But I have to change my vote to 5D Modeling and Programming

    BTW: If you subscribe to Modern Machine Shop Magazine you will see this Propeller. I created it in BCC V21 and it is used in the BCC Ad. The user endorsement is from Tjones here on CNC Zone!!!!

    Pretty cool stuff!!!!!!!
