    I am using DolphinCADCAM, (Partmaster)

    It works very well with Mach3 and EMC2 (download the windows 7 patch and the PP files are in there)

    I havent had any issues with this program and do recommend it, worth the buy imo

    I tried a demo of Partmaster, but i absolutely hated it.

    They do do deals for hobby users in which the price is quite reasonable.

    So try the demo

    Make sure STOP SPINDLE WAIT FOR CYCLE START is ticked in general config TOOL CHANGE
