    3D drawing software???

    Anyone know where I can find a free program that I can make 3D Drawings of woodworking plans? Like if I wanted to take my snake rack and make it a 3D drawing.

    Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks.

    You can even add textures to it! Check out a thread I posted a while back regarding a display unit I am working on!

    Thanks so much guys, I did this just by playing around with it for a few minutes. Not that hard once you get the hang of it.



    Also very nice stand that you built there. Honestly I think that would be an awsome terrarium holder just as it is. Very well done.

    Thanks for all your help guys, Im gonna have so much fun with this program
