Usually pencil and paper I do have a copy of TurboCad which I use when I need precision.
AutoCAD 2018.For the designers out there; what CAD software do you use (freeware, company provided software does not matter), to produce your designs?
I am fortunate enough to have access to SolidWorks full-time, but I have been exploring other means for design; maybe post up some useful featured programs available?
Rhino for 3D, AutoCAD LT for 2D. It's good to work for an engineering company.
Inkscape.
If you join E.A.A. they offer a free version of Solidworks...https://www.eaa.org/en/eaa/news-and...07-25-2016-new-member-benefit-from-solidworks
Our company formerly used SolidWorks, but has just recently switched, worldwide, to Siemens NX. I will probably flick between both, as I have a pirate version of SW on the home PC.
For the NX or the pirated software?UGH - LUCKY!
I have tried inkscape for converting pictures and PDF files to DWG files for laser cutting at work. Never had much luck with it. I seen good reviews with it though. Have you had good luck?
Has anyone here used DesignSpark Mechanical lately, and does it export STL files to a slicing program?
