Re: what cad/cam package

[Henry Palonen <henkka-at-yty.net>]

Hi

I'm using QCad [1] / CamExpert [2]. They are quite nice and run natively
under Linux. There is also source code for QCad available (uses
KDevelop / QT as devel-envinroment). Only feature that I'm longing for is 3D.
But for simple 2D work they seem to be more than adequate. And price-tag
isn't bad, QCad is free & Open Source, Cam Expert Professional for
Linux costs $180,-
