I learnt on a drawing board with pencils, from 88, then Autocad in '94 and solidworks from 2005. I really pushed autocad to the limit with 3D at the time and it fell over. Solidworks is great, although I gather Autodesk have responded with inventor?

you can export solidworks straight to CNC, but cut patchs need checking . . . as with any packages there are differeing and multi file types.

the thing I really like about solidowrks is its a solid. . . its logical. I've never got on with surfaces and rendering, thats not engineering, that's kids games.
