I would try Turbocad. It's fairly inexpensive and offers nearly the same aspect that AutoCAD does. I am currently using AutoCAD light, but had their full mechanical suite a few years ago. not sure if anyone else has a better idea.

While I am very computer literate, I've never used any type of CAD software at all and have no idea where to start to use it. So, with that in mind, what suggestions does anyone have? I usually just use some graph paper and draw it out by hand, but in this case I'd rather have it done in CAD so it can be saved for future reference. Thanks! And MERRY CHRISTMAS to all,
