Don’t recall any of them who were machinists though. What I saw though was primarily their CAD work done on their own time because they were fascinated with using it. Many of them, especially the programmers I met had hobbies on the side. They were passionate about what they did. The Solid Edge people were ones that did become familiar to me and it was surprising how many had actually been there since Intergraph days. Next got involved with involved with Solid Edge which became my design program of choice from the initial release of ST1 up until this very day where I quite happily use ST8 and intend to do so for some time. Earl always had real life practical experience from the first time we met on. Earl was good and today has moved on to Powermill at a company that makes auto floor mat molds with endmills so small at times I don’t see how they make them. With the exception of Earl the rest of the VX CADCAM employees were unknowns to me to be able to know what they did as hobbies or for personal entertainment. Lots of 2D CAD shops at that time and this shop never entertained the idea of running CAM with 2D. Why with CAD of course and to me 3D and working off of shapes made immediate sense. The problem was now you have a CNC machine and a CAM program how do you feed the CAM program.

In came a fellow by the name of Earl Thornton who was selling VX which was a design and machining all in one program around 2005 or so. A short-lived program for me since right after I got it Surfcam ended it and it became a $4,500.00 buy it to use it cost for basic mill and lathe which I did. My very first bit of software was Surfcam’s 2D Free. Also keep in mind while Autodesk has a huge range of software offerings my only concern and where my comments are directed to is metal cutting. But first some history of where I have been and my experiences. This post is going to reflect upon the people I have met in direct employ by CAD and CAM authoring companies who support, write code or manage the outfit.
