PS, Surfcam will not be around much longer. as the company that owns them will be weeding them out. but if you buy they will give you a seat of one of there other software's.

As for Mastercam you will get 3D surfacing with the Mill level but yes a big jump to Mill 3d were you get option of multi surface selection and more surfacing options.
There is a lot pf power in the X9 that a lot still have not figured out. Also you around the corner from the new release of 2017 around the end of June.

If you get stuck or have questions please ask.
