The program i used to do the 3d still drawing is Rhinoceros 3d

you can download a copy from here

i can also post a crack for it if you cant find it on the net..
the program as i rcall is fully functional with limitations on exporting saving renderd images.

the main fetures you want are:

standard box cylynder toroid etc..

then the following items..

Boolean add and diferance, to punch or drill parts.

spiral curve, to crate spirals eg condenser coils.

and under edit there is a join comand to join the curves, you need to but up the curve ends very closly to join them.

pipe, which will crate the larger diameter pipe around the spiral you have crated.

use the online tutorial
and use the in program help to find additional details on each of the commands..

hope this helps geting you started

I could make it in Auto Cad, but saving it as picture isn't possible, is it?
I'll maybe download it and ask for a crack

thank you

If you use Auto Cad you can do a cheat way of saving it as a picture buy using your "print screen" feature on your keyboard (alt/print screen) and pasting it somewhere you can save it as a .jpg

Will it run on a Mac? I've been looking for somekind of freeware program to use since I got my CAD/Detailed Drafting Certificate. We used AutoDesk Inventor, it's pretty cool but I hear that Solid Works is suppose to be even better.

i have solid works 2006 but this is very similar and a bit easyer to use..

also it integrates with 3d animation prg like 3d studio max, Lightwave etc...

ill post a link to the crack l8er...

Hey Decoy, do you know any linux-compatible 3d modelling suites? I love Solidworks but can't use it at home on my linux system.
