As a side note, regarding the FPD soft, yes I had issues understanding the hole thing for the 10-20 mins I've worked on it. What I'm understanding is that it's not as easy to steer on a Mac so that might explain a few things. Regardless, Easy Draw is a fun and practical drawing program but I guess more of a poor mans option compared to to FPD. And frankly this laser etching bit is not as ''in your face'' graphic wise, you also need to drill your own holes on your plates when the etching is done. So you need more elbow grease.
