I'm totally new to the CNC world and just bought a CNC from ShopSabre a couple of months ago, which came with VCarve Pro. I discovered to my chagrin that I can't actually design new 3D models in VCarve, and they only let you import one external 3D model in any given layout. So for $700 they still handicap you quite a bit. I'm debating whether to upgrade to Aspire for an additional $1,300 or switch to Fusion 360 ($495/year, I think). We got this machine to expand my wife's woodcrafting business, which includes a lot of animal and human figurines, plus some educational toys and materials, which we've always painstakingly made by hand. The figurines are fully two-sided and sometimes fairly life-like. Which of the two softwares is better suited to creating the figurines? I'd greatly appreciate any advice.
