3d CAD for linux

Offy · 2009-04-02 21:21:30

Does anyone know of any 3d CAD packages that run on linux? Ive used ProE and Solidworks on windows and I want something similar for home. Any kind of modelling software would do as its never going to be used for detailed drawings.

Hi, Maybe this?

Also take a look at:

Also possibly Blender? It's for animation though I think...
