Hi All

I just sent out an email to everyone who purchased the ViaCAD Tips, Tricks, and Techniques E-Book with links to an update. The update adds 30+ new tips to the book plus includes some suggestions from the readers.

This update is free to everyone who purchased the E-Book from MasterViaCAD or Encore. If you purchased the hard cover version from Amazon, you are welcome to a courtesy E-Book update as well.

Also be sure to let me know what types of tips you may like to see added in the next update.

Contact me by private email if you need the update.

Thanks

Tim
