Re: How do you do basic layouts/designs

We used Pro/Desktop from PTC for the students and I compiled all their designs into Pro/Engineer (also PTC). This gave us the ability to see most of our items would package. The problem with CAD is 3D programs can be memory hogs and it wasn't long before I had to export smaller files for the students because their PCs couldn't handle the files the way my workstation does.

I have to say though even as an engineer with a CAD system I live to use cardboard, wood, and PVC because nothing beats seeing the real size and relation of things.
