    Which cam for fourth axis?

    What's the most affordable cam software that includes fourth axis milling functionality?

    DeskProto. Call Andrew, if you are a hobbyist you can get special discount pricing below what is listed on his site. VERY easy to use!

    Thanks, McPhil!

    Yes, Deskproto's on-again off-again hobbyist special is happening right now, for a limited time only. The way it works is that if you're a hobbyist (not using it commercially) you buy an electronic download of the 4.2 version (which has good 4th axis functionality) for $300, and you also get a copy of the full 6.0 version when it comes out, for just the price of shipping. They say they'll be releasing it sometime this year. This deal is not on my site yet, but send me an email and I'll make it happen for you.
