Did you end up finding a post processor for Soildworks as I’m running a current edition of soildworks myself I would much rather use this over fusion 360

I found this site that has a centroid post processor for mill and lathe. Who knows if it will work or not? https://hawkridgesys.com/cam-post-processors

I'll be having this problem too very shortly I think, I just assumed post processors were easy to find and everywhere. Are there any tools or resources out there to make you own or modify an existing cam works post processor? I see cam works offers a modification tool, has anyone ever used it?
