Hi,
Cut2D from Vectric(www.vectric.com) is exactly what I need but I cannot afford it, so I'm looking for the best cheapest or even freeware/shareware alternative,
I'm wanting to make signs with raised lettering and edges to be cast in aluminium, using sand moulding and lost foam casting, I've never used CAD software before and I find it difficult to learn a specially when they have so many bells and whistles, but of course I'm willing to put in the effort once I find the right software combination, that can take me from designing the sign to milling then to be cast in aluminium.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Darren.
