Nice tools! I'm super jealous of the plasma table! Makes cutting the thick stuff so much easier.

Scott,

You probably already have a 2D CAD program, but if not you may want to check out DraftSight.

It is from the folks that make Solidworks and is free to all users. I'm messed with it a little bit and as far as I can tell it is pretty much the same as AutoCAD LT - -even the commands are the same.

If you ever need anything drawn up in 2D, I'd be happy to help too!

You can always print it on paper to make sure it's what you want before cutting it.

You'll pick up the 2D stuff pretty quickly.

Thanks for the offer. The only thing I seem to pick up quickly is a hamburger.
