Have a look at FILOU NC16, it is an easy to learn 2,5D CAD/CAM Software.
Hi.
I have a small router, home made, with 3 axis + 4th rotary to work small pieces silver/brass.
I was between: Cs-Lab - good hardware but buggy mach3 or SimCNC beta , Centroid Oak - good hardware but Starbucks software prices and EdingCNC icnc600 - slow hardware but good software without small leter .
I need a 05-1k$ intuitive, easy to learn and work, CAM software with 4th axis indexed capability 2D and 2.5D.
For CAD I will use fusion 360, rhino (maybe more)
I not find too mach info about Vectorcam, it is lucking for me like Deskproto but chaper.
Any help to choice, please?
Thank you,
Coly

No I know that it is available in english, as I use it. Just write them an email or look at FILOU is your partner for CAD / CAM / CNC - FILOU
VectorCAM and DeskProto are very different programs, that work in very different ways.
You really can't compare them.
DeskProto accepts mesh models,While VectorCAM accepts solid models.
