Sunny Day! I was cruising the internet and ended up at forum where there was an ongoing discussion about DeltaCad and some other CAD programs. There was mention of a package called CadStd and I found the website at the following address:
www.cadstd.com The author of this program has two versions that he offers. CadStd Lite is free and CadStd Pro is $29.95 USD. Being attracted by my favourite word "free" I downloaded the Lite version and installed it. One good feature is that it will import and export DXF files. I have not spent a lot of time using it but it appears to be very simple. It includes some useful commands including ones that allow you to draw rectangular and polar arrays. Unfortunately the Lite version does not include commands to trim or extend lines. It is possible to overcome this problem in many cases by using snap. .A help file is included that describes all the commands. Even with its limitations, you can't get much better than this if you are interested in learning CAD. Happy Dialling!
