Any Veteran or Military discount offered?
I’m afraid that Carbide 3D is a small, self-funded company, and that we can’t afford to offer further discounts — we try hard to have our prices as low as possible, so as to be competitive in the marketplace.
That said, we have continued to offer free shipping to the Continental U.S. and Canada, which helps quite a bit.
On thing which may help as a veteran is to get the SolidWorks veteran’s license of their educational version — I get that (though it’s installed on my son’s gaming PC and he uses it for schoolwork). See https://www.shapeoko.com/wiki/index.php/Commercial_Software#3D_CAD for a link (I think it works for active duty as well).
I completely understand and appreciate the feedback. Just never hurts to ask.
