When I make something I generally work out the finished dimensions I want then make rough sketches of the components. I draw terribly and would kind of like a CAD program that works in a similar manner. For example...
- Define components (top, bottom, sides, back, front, whatever).
- Define relationships of components ("top" = "parallel to bottom", for example), preferably by drag & drop.
- Draw components by inputing dimensions.
- View/modify each component as a separate dimensioned drawing
- View all components in relationship to the others; eg, an "unfolded" and dimensioned view (front in center, top above, bottom below, sides at respective sides)
- Put the lot together in a dimensioned 3D view.
Basically, I don't want a program to actually draw the stuff but one that takes numeric input and creates them from that. Any suggestions?
