Easy to use, good for 3D and 2D, but you carnt do 3D assembly drawings which sucks..

im trying to get solidworks now... if someone can suggest a good easy way to get it id appreciate it... i tried a torrent but i carnt get it to work

No Mac version

ive used solid works and Auto Desk inventor pro. Both are very similar however we can do alot more with our pro Inventor. Would definitely recommend it.

solidworks use to be really easy to get a 'free' copy off .....off their own website but they have closed that loop hole and everything has been tightened up a 1 yr student license cost me with shipping and import £130 :x

I tried to get auto desk inventor pro (at a cost of £50) but I don't have access to a computer powerful enough to run it. So I'm stuck here with pro desktop.

been playing with solid works thanks to dennis for sorting me out...





the render features are pretty cool... going to try get a pretty decent cad model of this robot before anything gets made.

galactus is looking good :P

sorry :sad: nah its awesome

[psycho_fling]

the render features have definitely improved between the 2011 and 2012 versions

Harry, Go back to your drill motors and chopping board.

Not seen much of the 2012 version... i think what ive done is a really bad example to what can be achieved, im pretty rubbish at CAD to be honest... a bit more practise needed
