Peten,
Machining a 3d model is a little more interactive than "converting it to gcode", otherwise we'd all be using these "converters"
Depending on your budget (which looks healthy if you have a copy of Solidworks), I'd recommend that you demo test various flavours of OneCNC. I don't know where you can get a better value for your buck in a program that won't take aeons to master the cam
First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.
