CAD software
I am looking at buying some affordable CAD software (i.e. ~$100 or less) for
designing woodworking projects and to create drawings for a house remodeling project. I've sort of narrowed the search down to TurboCAD, DesignCAD and Autosketch. An article in the September/October 2004 issue of Fine Woodworking reviewed all of these and seemed to like DesignCAD. It looks like TurbaCAD and Autosketch are more general purpose. Does anyone have any experience and/or opinions about any of these programs? Larry |

While i am a lite user of it, I have been using Design CAD since DOS days. I
use it for concept visualization and less for spec design drawing. It is an easy to use easy learning curve program. I have tried other programs but always settle for DesignCad. . .now #D Max ver14.1 and eying ver 15+. -- SwampBug ---------------------- "Larry" wrote in message ...

Before you jump, try Intelicad. Most of the features of Autocad with which
it purportedly is highly compatible at a fraction of the cost. http://www.intellicadms.com/ "Larry" wrote in message ...
