My apologies if this was answered elsewhere. If I download and try the Buildbotics controller software demo from their site, will this be the exact same as the CAM software that Onefinity uses? I have not ordered my machine yet, but would like to get as much prior experience with software as possible. It looked very much the same as the software shown in the in the Meyers Woodshop ‘walk through’ video.

Thank you,

Tom
