[simpits-tech] Modeling software...

[Gene Buckle]

I discovered a new parametric modeling tool from AutoDesk this morning 
called 123D.  I think they've taken a page from the Dassault Systems 
DraftSight handbook because 123D is _free_.

>From what I can tell, it's essentially a very easy to use version of 
Inventor.  It includes the main (important!) features of Inventor 
including creating assemblies.  Check it out:

If I can figure out how to export flat patterns out of this thing, 
SketchUp is going to hit the round file. :)

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
