[simpits-tech] Wiring harness layout board...

[cyplesma at aol.com]

 not to sound like a sales man but...


I think of couple of CAD programs can do the following, but I use DesignCAD3D, but anybody who has a cad program should look into it and see if it has a programming type language (I think Auto CAD uses macros)

But DesignCAD3D has an actual programming language. You have the program ask for a set of parameters, say the height and length of a wall, and it then generates a brick wall where it will add to your 3D file a wall of not just the surface of the bricks with them alternating and with a predefined spacing but show all the bricks in 3D (i know duh!) and you then do whatever with the file.

but looking at the picture on the front page of the pdf file I'm thinking they used DesignCAD3D, I believe Home Depot uses DesignCAD 3D for their deck layout program.

oh the latest version is like 100.00 from the program's home web site.

 Jay,



{Icy Knight here}



I remember trying to make a VB (1.0, back in the day) to do just that. Never finished, but the company I would have handed too let me go, and I haven't had a need for it since.



You can use some CAD software though, even powerpoint (for cables that will fit on the largest powerpoint type paper size) which can be pretty good sized.



But a plotter always comes in handy otherwise you have to piece together the letter sheets which I imagine some people don't mind for the cost difference.

I wonder how many body parts that stuff costs?
