I have two votes:

1) My positive vote goes to Dolphin PartMaster (2.5D I don't use 3D yet) -
no connection with them other than a happy user ...

2) My negative vote goes to BobCAD. Before I retired I developed software
on systems large and small. BobCAD (I have V17) probably has some good
stuff under the covers but it has probably the worst user
interface/documentation/support I've ever seen. My copy is gathering dust
in a corner somewhere ...

... as my sig line says: "Good judgment comes from experience, experience
comes from bad judgment" ... I regret the day I purchased BobCAD - I was
saved by Dolphin!

Cheers,
