"By the way, I use a free program DraftSight to do all of my engineering designs. I use it on my iMac, but it will run on a PC too.
The program functions much the same way as ACAD which I started using in about 1982."

Thank you for mentioning that drafting program.  Up to now, I've always done drawings with pencil and paper, but it's high time I entered the 21st century (or at least the 20th!). I was looking for a basic CAD program, preferably free, and this may be it.  But you sound very experienced at CAD.  Is this a good one for a beginner?  

At the moment, I just want something that can replace manual drafting, but having something that could do 3D, etc,  might also be good.  I have manual machinery and no plans to change that.
