Installed it and played a bit by working through some 2.5D and 3D CAM tutorials and wow, I'm quite impressed. Definitely worth a look for 2.5 and 3D CAM as its got a lot of the high end CAM strategies like Adaptive Clearing, Pencil, Scallop, Spiral, Radial etc. The tutorials worked flawlessly and nothing crashed or broke and its relatively easy to get going, so I like it so far. Its got sort of a Google Sketch-up look and feel. It's also supports something called 3+2 (5-axis positioning) for both 2.5 and 3d strategies which might be handy of you have a 4th axis on your machine. I'll maybe try the CAD functionality this weekend.

After seeing all the fancy features during my cursory look, the "FREE" part sounded to good to be true so I went through the registration process, selected the free option and the "30 days evaluation" part in the title bar disappeared so apparently I'm now the proud owner of a free Fusion360 Ultimate.

Just for the record, I have no affiliation whatsoever with autodesk or any any cadcam software company so I'm not selling anything :-)

Has anybody else tried it and whats your thoughts?
