Vectric Software V12 Now Available
Thread Starter: Michael Burnside
I was talking with friend over the weekend and they were unaware that V12 has been released. So, I figured I would post here in case someone wasn't aware of this news. In general the upgrades look good overall. I personally upgraded my version of Vcarve Pro.
