What CAD software are you using? Because if the software can export to DGN (Microstation) Ogr2ogr would do the trick to directly import it into postGIS.

You can find ogr2ogr in the FWTools, instructions are at: http://www.gdal.org/ogr/

that converts DWG to SHP, but the price is quite
prohibitive.

Kresh,

I wonder why you would not just go from shp to PostGIS with the shp2pgsql command?

Is there any open source util to convert .DWG to .SHP?
Thanks.

I personally don't know of one, however, I believe GRASS GIS can open a shp file and write to a dwg file.
