Inexpensive = $400:
http://www.progesoft.com/ Under $100: Autodesk has just released a new program called Freestyle which you might be interested in. Free: http://www.doublecad.com/Products/DoubleCADXTProv2/tabid/1099/Default.aspx?gclid=CJrKnJPigaMCFQs_gwod3WRZZA http://www.3ds.com/products/draftsight/draftsight-overview/#vid1 I can't say if any of these will generate a materials list though? You will just have to check them out for yourself. Edited by Cad64 - 23.Jul.2010 at 15:48 |

I am looking for inexpensive (<$100 or even opensource) CAD software to use when I undertake home improvement projects or a furniture project or even the design of a piece of luggage. It is important for me for the software to be able to make a list of materials needed.
I am using win xp and 7 now and will soon have my first linux install. Any suggestions? I have looked at a number of free/open source options but there is nothing in the documentation that tells me that they will generate a list of materials. |
