CAP program recommendation for newbie

[Charlie_w]

Hi All,

I'm new to the CAD world and this board.  I'm looking for a recommendation for an easy-to-use and economical entry into CAD design.

 

Here's what I eventually want to do:

 

Pull in a scaled image (3D scan) of a person's back and use that to create a customized brace.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks,

Charlie

You might want to take a look at Fusion360. It's free for personal use. But if you're looking for something to use for commercial design, you will need to get a commercial subscription or look at programs like Inventor or Solidworks.

Thanks for the recommendation.  I just downloaded the program and an ebook tutorial.  Here we go!
