I have only used cad a few times. I downloaded a free program and toyed around with it for a couple of months.
A project that i am working on needs certain pieces laser cut. My local laser cutter said to just email them the dxf file and they can cut the pieces. The problem, the blueprints i have are on paper. Id really like to find a cheap cad program and draw the pieces over again so i can make some changes and improvements to some of the parts. Most of the parts are on flat plate and what i consider pretty simple(and hopefully wont take long to learn to draw)
What cheap cad programs do you guys recommend that use the dxf file format?
I saw turbo cad version 10 on ebay for like 20 dollars. It says it saves in 25 different formats but doesnt specify which ones.
Thanks Everyone for the help!
