eMastercam celebrating 1 million posts! Sep 17, 2015 -- We’ve reached a milestone! In-House Solutions’  eMastercam online forum just marked its one millionth post, proving that the active online community continues to serve as a great resource for Mastercam users worldwide.

Approximately 56,000 members, most from North America but some visiting the site from locations around the world, use the online forum regularly for all things Mastercam. Whether they’re posting questions, offering helpful advice to other users or sharing solutions, the active online community has become a valuable source of information for all types of industries using Mastercam in a variety of applications.

The site offers a number of forum categories, including industrial, post processor development, educational, woodworking, and machining, tools, cutting and probing.
