    Default Software/probe question

    Hi guys. I'm a new owner of a used 3 year old PRT alpha. It's got part wizard software. I'm trying to learn how to use the probe to duplicate original 3D pieces. It's my understanding I can make an sbp file and duplicate the part exactly, or I can make it as a dxf file which can then be manipulated with some kind of 3d software to make it bigger/smaller etc. Am I understanding this correctly, and if so, what software would you guys recommend for this use? ArtCam looks awesome but the $7500.00 is out of my league.

    Rhino is my choice for that kind of work.
