Before you click on an external link and leave this (my) Web site you might want to use the Bookmark command in your browser so that you can find your way back here. Remember that my site is called www.DANCAD3D.com (sm). When you go to other sites you need to abide by the rules of the author of that site. Just because I have offered a link to someone's site here does not mean that I endorse or recommend their products, or approve of how they are using or recommending my products and programs.
I am not responsible for the availability of, or content in, other peoples and companies Web, or ftp, sites and so do not claim, warranty, or guarantee that any or all of the sites indicated, or linked to, will be available when you want them, or that any of the links included in this Web site (HTML document) will work at all. If you find a bad, or inoperative, link try using a search engine to search for the company or product the link was to have been for, the company linked may have moved to a new URL or something. See SECTION: 8 for any possible information there might be about reporting a bug.
The links I have selected to include here are just some sites that I thought might be interesting to look at, or possibly useful to somebody with similar interests. You will have to look at them and make your own decisions about their relevance in your life and world view. Before purchasing anything it might be wise to ask what the seller's return policy is. If you have any problems with the sites linked to from my site I cannot be responsible, liable, and or otherwise involved in your grievance with them or your claim against them.
The inclusion of a link here does not imply that I am stating or suggesting that you may, could, or should use the information found at the sites linked to. The sites may contain proprietary, copyrighted, or patented ideas that you would need to negotiate with the owner of before using or incorporating their ideas into something you display, make, build, or sell.
Here are some external links to sites where you may be able to read some interesting information. Some of the information may be free to use, but some may require payment to the author or the company that runs the Web site, be sure that you read the instructions at the site when you visit. Inclusion of any link to a site here does not mean that I am endorsing their information or products, it just means that you might give their site a look over and make your own decision about their information or products. The trade marks mentioned on this page belong to the companies linked to, the author of that Web site, or the trade mark owner.
You can probably find many more links about these or similar concepts on the internet by using one of the many search engines. I have located some selected links on these subjects to let you know about some concepts that might lead to the start of an interesting project that you might perhaps employ CAD and CAM programs in the construction of. Always check and thoroughly inspect all parts manufactured by using my programs before using them. You should not use my programs to produce components for anything that could produce damage or injury.
The use of CAD and CAM software might prove helpful in the production of confinement chambers and other components made from various materials used in the construction of fusor type fusion reactors, particularly when several parts of the same kind need to be made or contoured surfaces need to be machined. Always observe proper safety practices when operating your fusion reactor. Do not use my programs to produce components for devices that are capable of producing damage or injury.
