Your welcome.!!

Ok then for simple stuff then CamBam is a good cheap start CAD/CAM software and will do most of what you want and will also do basic 3D work.

For the simple V-carving, engraving side then look towards the cheaper vectric offerings, for more complex and 3D carvings then you'll need there higher end offerings.

CamBam is a good starting point thou and at one time they did a free version but I'm not sure anymore.?
