So this is a sort of review of them. Jen and I met these guys out at EJS last week and since I knew Ian Johnson used their software I brought Jen over to see it. So I learned a few things while talking with them, one the software costs less then $500. This may still sound pricey to some but for a 3D cad based software that is super cheap. Another is they have some sheet metal software that comes loaded with a bunch of templates. Things like gussets and even bead locks. You load one of their templates and just add in your measurements, super easy. I also learned they are really nice guys. They really know their stuff and they really want to support the smaller fab guys. They do great in the large production shops but they know there are a lot of DIY folks that would benefit from it.
I'm thinking of getting it so I can design some stuff for people to fab for me.
