Hi Michael,

Thanks for your reply, i have not even got a cnc yet, but i am determined to get going this year. i know its a big learning curve, thats why i want to get the software and get used to working with it even before my cnc arrives.
i will only be doing 2d like house signs, {but not house signs}
But replies to this posting have been positive so V Carve pro seems to fit the bill so far :]

Thanks again Michael

It also allows you to used shaped (ogee) type bits and create them in the tool bin. Both are very useful tools but for my two cents VCarve Pro works better. Both have a learning curve and CamBam once set up and the tooling set up for the operations you want can also flow rather quickly, but it does not have some of the CAd of VCarve Pro nor the amount of tutorials and structured training material.
