Right now, our team members can get Autodesk Inventor Pro from their website, but that does not run on Macs. We put Inventor Pro on a few Windows computers the school owns, but they sometimes take a while to load, so it's not really reliable. In addition, not a lot of our members have their own Windows PC to take to robotics meetings.

Bottom line is CAD software for Macs would be optimal for us. So, if anyone has any suggestions, we would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!
As noted by a number of other teams Fusion 360 is available on both PC and Mac platforms. For obvious reasons I would recommend you have a look!

Let me know if I can be of any assistance.
