Ok, I'm obviously a rookie, and I've looked at the majority of the CAD solutions out there (I"m going to be inventing some motocross bike parts) and when I look at the features and prices in the side by side comparison charts out there on the web DesignCad 3D Max v.23 comes out looking like it has all the features and is about 1/10th the price of the big brands.

However, the only person I see talking about it here on cnczone is Magic and he seems to be affiliated with the company.

Anyone here use it for inventing or creating mechanical parts? And if so, what is your opinion?

Thanks in Advance.
