Hi,
Just an FYI, I looked at SketchUp and it has one BIG issue. Maximum
resolution is .01 inch so to use it for anything much in machining you will
need to play games with scaling it up then correcting by 10x to do anything.
Big pain in the butt.
My 2 Cents,
Ron

Hi All
Thought this might be of interest ...

CAD and CAM for Sketchup - lots of extra plugins too - all works very well
and multi platform Mac/PC/Linux.
This is open source software (and FREE !), so expect to see a lot more
stuff.
It's all about this ...
