I hadn’t used CAD software before then, but was immediately hooked. I was machining parts for radio-controlled cars in my garage and was looking for a more accurate method to design them. I purchased my first copy of TurboCAD (Version 7 Standard) in 2000 for hobby use. An awesome gift for the creative in all of us! Don C. I have tried a number of CAD applications now just to compare and TurboCAD is always, without a doubt, my first choice. It seems to be built with the general public in mind and, as such, is not insanely complex as some of the other more costly CAD applications are. I also find that TurboCAD is relatively easy to learn. I can even modify my models at the same time and see the updated changes as I work. The very best part is that TurboCAD has integrated render capabilities and I can experiment with materials right in my drawing and watch the changes live. This includes mechanical designs for manufacture, furniture design and assembly instructions and even retail outlet store renders (interior and exterior). I can switch from creating trade show booth designs one minute to any of the other things I do most days of the week. That means that I can meet the needs of most of my clients using this single product. I just love how TurboCAD is an all-purpose CAD application.
