    I totally agree. Now that ArtCam is available in a jewelry edition
    (with a new release just around the corner) it's become even easier.
    I recently returned from 4 days of training at ModelMaster in Georgia
    and received a good strong dose of what JewelSmith is capable of. It
    surprised me. I had in an earlier post labeled ArtCam as a
    heightfield based 2 1/2 D program. While there may be some truth in
    that statement, it does not do justice to a very well thought out and
    highly accessible program and I take this opportunity to make up for
    my error. The authors of ArtCam, DelCam (DelCam is one of the really
    heavy hitters in the high end CAD/CAM arena), have dedicated ArtCam
    JewelSmith to be the program par excellence for the jewelry maker.
    Bravo DelCam! 

    In the interest of fairness, I am now working on an in-depth
    comparison between Rhino and ArtCam JewelSmith that I will post here
    just as soon as I finish it. I'll follow it up with an html version
    with pics.
