Hello people. I have found myself in the need for some (PD?) CAD
design software (to run under X/Windows, preferably). I need the
generated object description to be in some common format, such as
IGES, CGM etc, so I want to be able to design objects using this
software which can dump the description in a format such as IGES.
Does anyone know of any on the net?
Alternatively, does anyone know of ftp sites with CAD data? I am
interested in objects which are suitable for milling, eg. ashtray,
toilet etc.
While we're on the begging topic, I would also be very interested
in conversion software, IGES <==> CGM, for example, to convert
between common formats.
Many (*1000000) thanks in advance, I will post a summary if
requested. Please email all reponses direct to me. Si.
