RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Question of .skd
Hi all,
I'm new on this list. Please forgive my me for my bad
english. I've been doing a lot of scuba diving in the
past, and I've always been interrested in submarines,
dreaming to build one by myself. I stated putting
together some information during the last 2 years and
a few month ago I found your website... I plan to
build a compact 2 person 1atm sub with a large
viewport (max depth 100 ft).
As you were talking about design tools, I'm using
solidworks 2000, which is very powerful, easy to use,
and allow you to draw directly in 3D (but also to do
2D). You can download or ask for an evaluation copy on
their website. It's a full version valid for 30 days.
When the delay is expired, you cannot open your design
anymore. The only thing you have to do is to reinstall
it and you're done!
BTW, is it possible to create a page on the psub
website where we can share some cad design,
electric/electronic design, breathing system,....?
