CAD Program
dollaman:
What is the best program to make a scaled drawing of my control panel and cabinet.
Dustin Mustangs:
Autocad is certainly the best, but it is big bucks and has a pretty steep learning curve. I have heard a few people rave about google sketchup but I have not tried it myself (I've got autocad 2004). It's free and seems to be a bit easier to use...

I would reccommend Sketchup as well.
There is a bit of a learning curve, but alot easier than learning AutoCAD.
There are even some cabinets built and online for Sketchup.
Check them out to get a start.

Sketchup is the way forward! :)
Once you get the basics its very easy. Without it I'd never have got my own cab project started!

Thanks, checked it out. Looks like it will work perfectly!!
