I just purchased a new AVID PRO CNC machine and am waiting for it to be delivered. I am a hobby / craftshop woodworking user. I am extremely versed in Autocad through my employement but new to CNC and CAM. I've looked at Fusion 360, Vcarve Pro and Bobcad. I can't stand any of the CAD (drawing portion) of any of the software. I want to continue to use Autocad and AutoCad Lt and just saveas DXFs and alike that I can import to a CAM program to do the tool paths and save to the G code file format. Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced CAM only software that would work for me? I like the Vcarve Tooling part of the software but it's a lot of money to spend when I only plan to use the tooling and no CAD portions.

CamBam was my choice for use with AutoCad. Pretty simple to use and about $150 for a lifetime license. Generous trial period.

What did you not like about Fusion? I thought it was free for home users. B
