Who knows good search engines for CAD files?

I have recently discovered http://www.findfiles.net" rel="nofollow - www.findfiles.net which seems to be a kind of Google for files. They also offer CAD files in the geo-3d section. But are there search engines offering more? Do you know any?

Thanks, Demian

I dont know man, I use goggle for everything. 3DcontentCentral has good models, if they actually have what your looking for.
But I share your pain....many a time I have searched endlessly only to end up just drawing a part myself. Frustrating.
Anybody else?

One of my pet peeves is spam. I HATE spam...and this is obvious spam. I can guarantee you will never see this guy again - until he wants to spam us again.

It is not obvious spam for me. The service itself is just what standard Google can do but I wouldn't say it is spam.

I've seen this type of advertisement in many other forums and I can guarantee you that this guy has no concerns other than advertising for his website.

It's your forum, I'm just sayin'. Wink

I guess my question seems not to be welcome. I guess that happens if you jump into a Forum to fast. My apologies.

My apologies if I sounded rude, but I've seen it all too often - someone like yourself comes in, and on their very first post, provides a "valuable service" to everyone and then is never to be heard of again.

These aren't my forums, I'm just here because I like to help. If Vladimir is ok with it, then I won't say another word. Smile
