Thread: Free CAD program

    A miracle has happened!

    I have successfully created an actual bloody part with SolidWorks that is kind of accurate. I do however have to use bigger "parts" like designing the whole frame which might only take weeks but whatever.



    It weighs approx 60lbs. I haven't gotten into stress testing but I figure that will probably be more important when I have the whole frame built.

    I will show some more progress tomorrow but my top rack model is almost done as well. It was soon much easier to model than the tongue. I will be very interested in the results of the stress testing. With the trailer frame I discovered setting about I intelligent design?? Anyway they use a trailer frame as the example so it certainly can't hurt.

    He really likes it and it looks super easy. I'm going to start use it and ditch solid works for most of my design.

    I can see being able to design small items but I think where these free design programs get you is not being able to design things like a roof rack or bumper that cannot be made with a 3d printer.
