Thanks for the quick response.? I liked KCam because I could import dxf files from AutoCad and it would generate and run the g-code to my CNC.? I guess I don't have to panic quite yet--just when I run into a problem with KCam.? In the mean time I will be looking into what else is available.? I had not run across Fusion 360 but will certainly check it out.
Thanks again for the response!

I don't know of Kellyware? or Kcam? but I would suggest?? Fusion
360, free? to you since you are a Hobbiest.??? There are many and I
mean many Youtube tutorials for what ever level you might want to
do.?? CAD with Built in CAM,? 2D, 2-1/2D and 3D.????? You might
start out looking? at lessons from?? NYCNC starting with the basic
but there are others as well.
I am a very recent addition to this forum (Today).? I am posting
because I just discovered that Kellyware is no longer exists.?
Does anyone know when he shut it down and why?? I have been using
it for close to 20 years and in a panic.? I am using his Max32 USB
control board and have had really good results.? Any suggestions
on a replacement software?? I liked KCam because it was very
affordable.? Been retired for 20 years and would hate to give up
my CNC hobby!
