CAD software for Mac???

[Swampkat]

What CAD software for Mac is recommended?

I have some parts/tooling for the lathe and mill I want to make and need to design in 2d and possibly later designing in 3d.

I could run bootcamp and use a windows os based program, but I'm looking for one that runs on mac os x.

Until I looked, I didn't think there was such a thing as cad for a Mac. Guess I was wrong.

Hey mate. Been working as a mechanical draftsman for a while now and i can tell you nobody in the industry i know users MAC for this sort of work. Not to say there are not programs out there for mac though. I use Autocad for 2d stuff and Autodesk Inventor for 3d stuff. They dont come cheap though, but im sure you can get you hands on a copy.
