Autocad Buyers Advice
I'am looking to get an autocad program, mostly for house design, and custom cabinetry. Right now I only have software from punch home design, I feel this program is very limited. Also what would be the best way to learn how to use these program's, I would prefer to do it at home, on my own time, with possibly attending some night classes or the odd weekend.

Re: Autocad Buyers Advice
Well if you dont know how to use AutoCad it will take you a while to get good with it.
I say you check out this software: www.chiefarchitect.com It is super easy to use.

Re: Autocad Buyers Advice
I know a ton of home builders use it.
If you really want to check out a great software package. Check ArchiCad9. It is becoming more popular worldwide for being the best.

Re: Autocad Buyers Advice
The learning curve is pretty long so if you want to get into ArchiCad pm me and I will show you some of the work it can produce.
