Till today quasi all carpenters, carpenter-joiner, cabinet maker, wood workers etc... in the world use the SketchUp prog! ;)

Alas the last free version on local computer is not yet existing from a month only "free online" and with no possibility to use plugins!!!

But you can always download the previous 2017 version Make (Free) local for computer! (so using Plugins !!! )

(of course for a pro use you must buy the Pro Version! But for training that is perfect!

Of course learning Moi is also perfect because it's the "SketchUp" of the Nurbs! :)

I just translated a very cool wood site plugin for SketchUp! https://trussfr.weebly.com (in French) :)
in english : http://design.medeek.com/resources/medeektrussplugin.html (free version is existing ! )





PS and a very cool Real Time Renderer for all that is SimLab Composer Lite! Maxi 1920 * 1080 some sufficient for many things! :)
