In Process Verification In Mastercam

Because CNC Software is too busy doing stupid things like porting Mastercam to run in Solidworks instead of incorporating something REALLY needed like stock recognition.

I can't imagine that anyone other than an e-Mastercam clique idiot would be happy with Mastercam In SolidWorks. For starters it barely has any 2 1/2 milling functionality.

I'd really like to know more about Hypermill in SolidWorks but their marketing and website is as bad as Cimatron's. In the mean time I bet Sidney Eisner (The SolidCAM Professor) has got well over 10 hours of videos he's made showing how to use SolidCAM and how SolidCAM works on the SolidCAM website.

Why is it that SolidCAM "gets it" and the rest of these CADCAM companies remain so freaking clueless about how to show what their product can do?

I'd like to see just about everyone involved with CADCAM marketing lose their job.

Are they gaining market share by simply producing videos?

Hmmm. Maybe they are showing exactly what their product can do, but you're too stupid to realize which parts are unimportant?

And them somehow gives them carte blanche to be total fuckheads and pull out the moderator shtick when someone has an opinion that disagrees with their own?

The board is there as a resource for Mastercam help, and it certainly provides that. I couldn't give a shit who they ban, edit, moderate, delete, preach to, or put a spell on. I don't see any of that, because I have no interest in following any of the political or religious garbage that gets posted over there.

The part that I find most entertaining, is the fact that these people Jon keeps listing, have directly provided HIM with tons of help, along with other people at CNCZone that he constantly complains about. His way of saying thanks is to trash their names all over usenet.

They are no better in that respect by banning people from their forums then talking shit about them afterward.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander, especially for the aforementioned high road traveling fuckwits.

Well, since a search on emastercam for posts made in the last 30 days containing the phrase "jon banquer" turns up 0 results, and Jon was banned about 30 days ago, I guess I don't really see how you can compare that to what Jon's doing here, trashing the names of people who helped him.

Doesn't exist.

I'd love to be able to click on my Toolpath Groups in the Mastercam Operations Manager and see the solid cut part model that has been created by each operation.

Why doesn't this exist in Mastercam?
