Title: Cabinet Design Software?
Post by: DarakuTenshi on September 19, 2013, 09:21:53 pm

I think I have finally settled on a design that I want to go with for my cabinet and I don't want to mess this up, so I'm wanting to design it on some kind of software. I'm looking at building a MKII cab that will be a slim and widescreen cab for a 32" monitor. What free software is out there that will help me design this?

Sounds like it's probably worthwhile and safe too. Thanks.

Google sketchup is common here. Another option but a bit of a learning curve is blender.

I use rhino myself but it's a bit pricey
