Visio should fit your needs but it isn't a true 3d package.

Doublecad XT is also from IMSI/Design (who also do TurboCAD). There is a free version, which is quite a lot like AutoCAD LT 2010 - and I have proved that they can swap DWG files, at basic level at least.
For the past few years I've used 'Tinycad' ...
Ditto. More for cct design I suppose. But anyway, available from from somewhere in...
I get an error after I click on the download link that says something like error accessing this page.

Just tried it, (02:55) downloaded OK. I needed to click on the "direct link" bit. (it's 2.6Mbyte).
It's for creating a record of the cabling layout I am currently doing in the house which will include 20 ethernet, 8 TV/Audio and 8 telephone outlets. Each cable is idedntified by number and the drawing will show a schema of the layout.

I finally downloaded it. The first time I tried, I clicked on the download button at the top but that went nowhere, then I tried the download text lower down and that didn't work.
Just tried the top download link and all the options opened up.
Now downloaded, but I won't have much time to play with it till next week.
Many thanks,
Dave
If you are a RISCOS person, why not consider David Snell's ProCAD. If you want to know more email me.
Or, if you are a bit of a programmer in BASIC, you could try Drawscript. This produces Draw files from a modified BASIC type program. But much more work than a dedicated package.
Any of the later versions of Draw like Draw Plus which include a library can be used for simple diagrams. And are easier to use than most CAD progs I've looked at.
I use DrawWorks XL and Mr Clippy for the library.
Have you two tried any of the freeware stuff out there? Things like these
Not that I'm a cheapskate or anything, but the packages being sold in the shops aren't any better than the freeware drawing packages now available to download.
I've not bothered as the Acorn Draw prog does everything I want - and is simple to use. Was designed for kids after all. ;-)
Hee Hee Hee I've used that before and have to admit that it works great. I use a combined freeware package called PhotoFiltre that can be used to draw as well as edit images. Best all round package I've found for these types of projects.
I found it here
today's use. It should really be called 'technical draw' 'Paint' in Acorn terms is more like the above one.
