CAD - sheet metal layout

Expert: <font color=#6b238e>J. </font><font color=#ff7f00>B. </font><font color=#0000ff>Borge</font> - 8/13/2007

Question
I don,t have CAD software but I need sheet metal layout software can u help and do you know the cost? thankyou

Answer
The top two 3D softwares i'd recommend are Solidworks & Inventor. Both packages features sheet metal capabilities & more. If you've used Autocad in the past, i'd go for Inventor - the transition would probably go easier. Solidworks on the otherhand, has a lower learning curve & personally i think it's far more intuitive.
Both packages run about the same price @ around $5k & up. Hope this helps!
