But could be a great way to learn a professional CAD system even so.

if there's a free version that's all good! However, a closer look at the FAQ and data sheet PDF suggests that it saves only in its own format, with limited export (VRML, STL only). Christopher K writes "Pro/ENGINEER FREE!!! limitations - 60 elements? That seems pretty good for a lot of uses, and it's Pro/E!" He's referring to Pro/Engineer, a serious industrial system (though it seems to have now been replaced/rebranded as 'Creo'). More shortly.ĭec 2011 Dunno about the less than snappy name but Creo Elements/Direct Modeling Express looks good (and free!). This looks interesting: - free CAD (mechanical and electrical) from RS. But really promising - and free! - and I'll be keeping a close eye on it. 2D drawings are a big missing element just now). After some playing on the beta version I'm quite impressed - although as forum discussions are making clear there's a long way to go before it could be called fully featured (e.g. Apparently from the original founder of SolidWorks so should be top class. March 2015 A free cloud-based CAD system is about to be launched, it seems: According to this blog post and the feature list, there's a completely free and fully featured personal edition that looks very promising.

Dec 2011: The CAD sub-forum on the Model Engineer website (from the publishers of Model Engineer and Model Engineer's Workshop magazines) has several useful threads for users of cheap and free CAD.Oct 2013: a useful discussion on CAD at the HSM forum mainly covering the 2D options.

Just download some of the free ones and see if they work for you! NEW!įorum threads collection - links to relevant threads from engineering forums discussing CAD: There is plenty of good stuff listed here - use it!ĪLSO NOTE: There's also not much point in contacting me asking for a recommendation for your particular needs.

The whole point of this page is to help people who want to use CAD software legally - but want it cheap or free. Please do not bother asking me to help you locate illegal copies of commercial CAD software. Most recently added or updated stuff is at the top of the list. I'll try to download and play with the ones suggested, but alas I may just not get round to it, so this page relies on your comments. To keep this page useful I want stuff that is free or cheap long-term - not just free 30-day trials. Please do also suggest new ones I've missed - I'll include them if they are free or cheap (a few hundred pounds/dollars/Euros) and useful for engineering CAD rather than just as 'visual effects' modelling. For now, I'm mostly using the old version of Alibre I bought some time ago for CAD (I'm starting to dabble in home-built CNC machines and slowly getting round to the telescope mount above.) For now, though, this page is maintained purely by reader-submitted updates - please email me (to peter atsignthingy eland dotty org diespammersdot uk) with your experiences of the software listed.

I hope soon to have more time for it, and I'll also be looking at moving to a more modern platform on this website.
REPEATING IN DELTACAD UPDATE
Update March 2015: Apologies for recent neglect of this site. So I developed an interest in (legal) CAD software which is cheap, or, even better, free! Now I'm just using (mostly 3D) CAD as a hobby. Many years ago now I worked as a mechanical engineer, using SDRC IDEAS (briefly), Pro-ENGINEER (quite a bit) and AutoCAD (a lot on version 10 in the distant past, and briefly on 12). This page is devoted to free or cheap Computer Aided Design software.
