floor and roof details, etc.
Michael,
Take a look at these (from a ubuntu site):
<...>
MEDUSA - 2D/3D commercial mechanical engineering CAD. Free for
personal
use only.
Interesting. I cut my CAD teeth using MEDUSA on Prime hardware to
develop floor plans. It didn't involve construction level details, but
another one of the Prime techs did use it to develop construction
drawings for his house in Massachusetts. And if it can pass muster in
Massachusetts, it should be able to pass muster anywhere. I wonder if
it's a recent arrival on the list. I don't remember seeing it when I was
searching.
