punch via cad update

[umahunter]

well i bit the bullet yesterday and bought the punch program i went buy staples and they had 30 dollars worth of rebates for it so i will end up paying around 60 for it instead of a hundred hopefully i can install it later and i will post up my findings

Do you know if it will save the files in .dxf format?

It looks like a great program for the price.

Let us know how it goes.

I just bit the bullet too. Let me know how you like it. I have been looking for an affordable 3d Cad for mac for some time now. I'm glad you had that link in the other thread, looks very interesting. It'll be about a week before I get it, but I'll post a review once I figure it out.

Thanks,

Jason

Uma,
What are you using the Punch program for? I didn't quite understand your thread.
Are you just making drawings?

[umahunter]

mostly to draw up and see designs in 3d before i build something also for some prototype stuff

Here is an update on ViaCad. I just got the program today. I went through the tutorial and made the goblet. Pretty easy so far. Excellent graphics.

Thanks,

Jason
