you need something like autocad for that. there are free versions like turbocad but im not sure how well they work.

DoubleCAD is a good free start.

[PeterCharles]

Well I've been tempted to part with $99.

But DoubleCAD is just free for 30 days, right?

[olishea]

there are lots of packages out there. it is ok to try before you buy

i think there is a free version of double cad. much like sketchup. I forgot about that software cheers for the reminder i was gonna give it a go.

There is a free version of DoubleCAD, and a limited version of Alibre you can try before you buy also.

We're thrilled to be able to have MoI as part of the Alibre product line moving forward. To celebrate that, we'd like to offer the MoI community a special offer until the first of the year. I know many people in here are artists and may not need mechanical design solutions, but if you do, here's what you can get until Jan 1.
