Autodesk Fusion 360 is the current program I have been working for the last coulple of years. It has an amazing set of programs for 3D CAD, CAM, Modeling, Sheet Metal, Rendering, Animation, Simulation & Drawings, a very capable program. Autodesk offers a Startup License for Startups and Hobbiests for no charge.
The above is the new gas fired furnace design which I plan to make in the next 6 months.
I completed the SolidWorks Basics course at
Quest Integration in Post Falls, Idaho in 2014 as part of my work in getting my CAD skills up to date.
I trained myself in SolidWorks 3D CAD/CAM at Gonzaga University during the summer of 2006. With all this free time while
unemployed, I found myself teaching myself this program to be up to date with the rest of the engineering world a good idea.
I am trained in
both Autodesk Inventor 3D and Alibe 3D CAD programs. While at Bay Shore Systems,
I took the Autodesk Inventor 3d training course and spent the next 6 months making
parts and assembly drawings in Autodesk Inventor 3D.
All programs use a 2d sketch which is made into a 3D solid including extrude
boss, cut and thin wall sweep features, solid sweeps, lofts, revolves, fillets, chamfers,
holes, shells, offset faces, mutiplane sketch planes, etc.
