If someone has a requirement for 3d relief modelling, I believe there is no better product available than ArtCAM Pro.

ArtCAM offers a complete range of tools for 2d to full 3d relief modelling and machining. With regard to functionality, the two products also address very different requirements.

The core underlying machining algorithms and drawing engine are also completely different. In particular, ArtCAM’s user interface is entirely HTML based whereas ours does not use HTML at all. However, a closer examination of the two products would reveal way more differences than similarities. I suppose it is inevitable that there are some superficial similarities between the two programs, in the same way two books by the same author are easily identifiable. I previously worked at Delcam where I was the original developer of ArtCAM, and managed ArtCAM development until relatively recently. There is no commercial relationship between Delcam and Vectric. In other words, do not overestimate the difficulty in learning this software. Those who know me best will not hesitate to agree with me: I am a computer idiot. This is my way of stating how easy the VCW is to learn. However, I think all the campers will attest to the quality of the cut. Too bad I didn't have time to totally finish it prior to camp beginning. I then created a 'camp sign' and cut it all with the VCW.

I used a 90 degree bit and cut into some scrap. In less than five minutes the file was loaded and ready to cut. I did not read the instructions (what-read instructions?)just followed the tutorial information. I welded all the text together, sized it, eported it (DXF) to VCW. Just for funnies, I created a small file re: Welcome to Camp ShopBot Oklahoma Style in commercial script type style.

I use Flexi Sign Pro to create my files for signs, etc. Just prior to hosting Camp Shopbot Oklahoma Style, I purchased both the vectric software packages.
