need assistance finding a free drawing program

[Daveroo]

Hi,im in need of a sketchup type program..i did try sketchup but you have to have W7 to use it..the free one..any other similar programs?..i know maybe Gmax...but that one scares me..


and another idea....if i could have someone who knows how to use these programs make the drawings i need...well that would be awesome...i need a "box" like cabinet 30" wide,48" long,18" high..i need the front (30"x18") side to have a piano hinge type hinge so that the front door folds down into a ramp,and the top will need to have a second hinge on top,so that it lifts from the front.in the very back ,but still on top will need to be a second box with just a lifting lid to store my RC controllers in,it would need to be 14" high 30" wide,and 18" deep..to be attached to the top or a part of the side and back panels.

that was fun...now i have it in my head ...lol....

If you are talking of a CAD type programe, Draftsight, just requires email to work.

Who's afraid of Gmax??

LOL


DrawPlus Starter Edition is free and runs in XP. Don't know anything about using it though...

Every one had its learning curve. It takes months to master a modeling program. Take your time and start small.
