    eMachine Shop exports to 2D DXF?

    I've made a few designs using eMachineShop and exported to DXF but when I import to LazyCAM for use in Mach3, it looks like it imports 2D views separately instead of one 3D model. Is this right? I get the jist that a few people don't like eMachineShop but to me it seemed easy enough to use for my simple designs.

    LazyCAM won't load a 3D model, so it must be giving you 2D views.

    FreeMill does the same thing. I'm just starting out here and trying out some software.
