hi sherry..

i think you should follow the mechanical route..

i think what you are really after is the cad/cam..  the cad/cam technology that you were saying is the combination of autocad and cnc machine, whereas the drawing in autocad is transferred to the cnc upon analysis of the various operation needed.. this is what they use in making molds in the plastic industry..

i think the inventor will best suit your needs..
The truth is out there.. so are the lies..

 Thank you.  So do you think the basic  autocad 2009 class I'm taking will
be of any use/help? I'll take a closer look at the inventor program.What about 3d animation? I want a well rounded basic and advanced course so i can program and change things to suite my needs. I'm not a big math genius.... I wonder how much this will play into it?

yes, i really think that it would be a great help/use in what you are planning to do.. i think the 3d animation is what you really need..

Program and change things?
Whoa there Sherrym, dont have to high expectations for your class.
Most of what you will learn will be OTJ training, because its specialized.
All you can hope to learn in an Autodesk class is the basics. The program is simply too advanced to train you on it all...unless you shell out some pretty coin and spend...waste alot of time.
But yeah, inventor would be the way to go. Not sure how animation will help you (thats more for interactive parts, such as gears and moving assemblies), but 3D is DEFINETLY the way to go.
And forget math, lol, thats why these programs exist. They do calculations for you.
