    Hello all,

    Don't know about free software but I can comment on what we use.

    For years we used Sigma but now we use Lantek.
    Lantek is very good and a lot cheaper than Sigma for us.
    Lantek has add - on packages for the professional so it keeps the cost down for the specialised or home user. You only pay for what you need.

    Paul.

    I realize the draw of using a free nesting software (it's free! we all want something for free) but what you don't pay for in $$ is exactly what ends up costing you in quality. I've tried the mynesting software, but it's quality pales in comparison to that of SigmaNEST V9. Sure you might spend a little bit more, but what you get back out of it is totally worth it. Try a free demo at: http://www.sigmanest.com/en-us/Company/Contact/profileform.aspx and then see how you feel about any of those other Free Nesting softwares out there. :idea:
