I'm now usingthe latest version (SE 2023) quite happily. Rather than repeat myself, I previously laid out my reasons for adopting it here: I am a very happy user of Solid Edge Community Edition Paul. If it works for you go for it, but things have moved on for most people? Honest would rather buy an old fashioned drawing board Oh and heres the hard bit, it needs to be free, It is, but that is an advantage to me working on a chromebook, as I have not found any software that works properly on it, not even librecad? With all packages there si a steep learning curve, I understand your difficulty, its frustrating, I am not an expert but like Onshape Tried onshape but seemed completely alien and could not even produce a simple object. You are certainly right there, many opinion on software on here. I realise this may have been covered before but spent a couple of hours trawling through threads. Oh and heres the hard bit, it needs to be free, some I have looked at run into thousands of pounds per year and to be honest would rather buy an old fashioned drawing board and spend the rest on (more) motorcycles Tried onshape but seemed completely alien and could not even produce a simple object and access to internet seemed necessary so it would be wonderful to find something that uses a similair interface to autocad Unfortunately because of where I will be using it I will have no access to the internet so any programmes that use cloud storage are out, can bring workshop pc back to house temporarily to load programmes but its too much hassle to do it repeatedly and I also need to be able to open and modify previously produced dll and dwg files Until recently was using Autocad, as a drawing package to produce drawings for general engineering and for 3d printed parts, now i can no longer access autocad so am looking for suggestions to replace it. I realise this may have been covered before but spent a couple of hours trawling through threads, got severely distracted and ordered a couple of new tools then decided that modifying my 3d printer was overdue and forgot to cook tea.
