Why are you so impressed with it now, all of a sudden?


You do know this is nothing new, right?



You never used a real CAD/CAM system where the model (CAD) and machining (CAM) is associative?



Think CAD/CAM Jon, associative, feature recognition, it's been around for years. Where you been, thought you were an expert?


than stand-alone CADCAM programs like
> Gibbscam that don't even know what a feature is.

As an expert you make quite a few beginner mistakes Jon. Like calling GibbsCAM a CADCAM program. GibbsCAM is a CAM program NOT a CAD/CAM program, you should know that.

What CAD, CAM or CAD/CAM program did you use when you programmed BottleBob's part?

Not idiot proof since you managed to make an error right off the bat trying to draw this very simple part.
