I tried the Fusion360 free trial and a bunch of online tutorials and with it I have already been able to design some stuff in CAD, print it on my 3d printer to validate my design before machining, use their CAM with Tormach postprocessor and then successfully machine a 3D part on my new machine when I got it. I don't know if the SW is good/fair/bad compared to other tried and true approaches but I'm pretty thrilled with it so far so I bought the $300 Ultimate deal last year, but I think you can go pretty far for personal use on the free trial.
Saw this CAM tutorial video last night, sounds like they are aligning with Tormach:
This is great news! I was very pleased to here that Fusion 360 has aligned or at the least "communicates" with Tormach. I need to see where to get the Tormach post file from.....
Thanks for posting the video.
