Title: Google Sketchup
Post by: KambeiX on July 07, 2007, 12:17:13 PM

I learned from that program in this forums and I must say it's great as a robotics CAD because it's very easy to use (well... not THAT easy but compared to AutoCAD it's a child's play).

Here is a picture of my first design. It's missing a lot of details and proportions aren't accurate but I made it in half an hour.

Nice. I have been thinking about downloading that, and now I see that it really can be used well. Also, great design so far!

not a great idea to admit that on the internet.
you never know when someone from Google might be listening....

I don't really care who listens, just as long as they don't have real proof, and I was merely pointing out a way to get some nice software at a very reduced price

Truth be told, google has never prosucted someone for piracy :)   

Chances are they would email you, and ask you to buy it...  or simply stop using it.

IF they even bothered..

despite what some folks say, google is a VERY nice company(friend of mine works in there PR department)

You may use solidworks it cost about $100 but the student edition is the best and you can test the strength of each part. or get the personal edition trial version.
