    James, that is some really neat 4th axis work. How long have you been working with the Aspire software to get where you are today? Its too bad you are on the other side of the U.S. I sure would like to see your shop.

    using aspire is bolsterd by its users forum and one can learn it much quicker than i did, i got vcarvepro in dec 07 and aspire in oct 08, the 3d came to me much better when we did the chess players as at that time i did not know squat, guy mathews, joesph brucoli (www.bossrocker.com ) and buddy easler a local shopbotter were my biggest help.

    take on a project that seems impossible and just do it!! you will learn or else.

    it is not smarter than you are, it just had the info sooner!!

    we can do a crossloop session when you get ready and we will teach you, you are a CAMaster owner!!

    Jim is being too modest. He knows more then he gives himself credit for.

    What I highlighted in bold Jim speaks volumes, just take on the hardest thing you can and learn from that. You will have a very rewarding project when finished and all the others will be easier from that point on. Plus you will learn along the way.

    Maybe sugar free Root beer for me? Being diabetic for 40 plus years, I am careful what I eat and drink. I do hope that in the future there will be a Camaster get together, to share tips and stuff, like the Shopbotters do.

    Sure, I mean, it has the word "beer" in it so it's got to be good.

    It would definitely be cool to have a get together someday. We should probably do it at my house.
