Hello everyone, I searched the forums for fence related items and came up empty. I'm not even sure I should ask this here but I am desperate.
 
I am the Chief Estimator for a commerical fence company in Florida and I am in charge of generating shop drawings/submittals when we land a contract. I SUCK at drawing and I am in desperate need of a simple program to generate the shop drawings I so despise creating. 
 
Any suggestions as to the best program for my needs?
 
Thanks,
Palindrake

Are you drawing different kinds of fences (wood, chain link, etc..) or is it mostly one type.

Does it include foundations, gates, etc?
 
you may be better off having a few detailed blocks of the repetititive stuff then repeat/adjust as needed for the job.
