"Best" freeware / open source mechanical CAD software?
I'm sure this has been asked many a time....
I'm doing some work for a company that is currently doing their mechanical
dwgs using Microsoft Visio. It's slow, impractical and a *major* PITA to
use.
Most of the drawing are simply showing sheet metal layouts, hole locations
etc. A 2d package would be ok.
Has anyone found a open source or freeware package that is really usable.
I've used & really like SolidWorks but the company is small and
unwilling/unable to spent $100 let alone many thousands!
I've found a couple BRL-Cad and FreeCad - any experience anyone?
Thanks
