Something I learned about at a recent SolidWorks User Group meeting from the CEO himself. You get full access to SolidWorks professional for all non-commercial use projects. Very useful for designing parts to either make them yourselves or to send files to get plasma cut or CNC machined. Pretty sure you get access to the FEA add ins as well for load testing suspension component designs. In my experience, SolidWorks is far superior to any free CAD software, so figured I would make this known. I had never heard about it until going to the user group meeting and I use SolidWorks every day.

I have 0 affiliation with SolidWorks, I just like it.

Handing out cheap CAD licenses is like giving cigarettes to children to get them addicted.

I was shown Solidworks in school, and now... it's what I know and use regularly. But it don't cost the same anymore (not that I personally pay for it, my work does)...
