ah, this is bad news. I needed the 3D and CAM functions. I am just now getting around in Heekscnc well enough to do what I need to do. Really a shame to get Heekscnc this far and let it fall off the map. I am just a modeler in my garage and after looking at all the 3D CAM offerings on the Wiki list, Heekscnc was the easiest for ME to understand though after watching every YouTube vid and any and all help I could find I just wish there was more users to toss issues around with to learn more.
For a hobbiest like me, spending hundreds or even thousands on CAM software isn't going to happen so I of course really appreciated the Open Source price point of free. Many thanks to Dan Heeks for getting it this far and I plan on still using it as is for now. regards Dan On 11/27/2011 11:05 AM, s...@highlab.com wrote: > The Heeks project is officially shutting down, and they are suggesting that > users move to the Freecad project.
