Looking to basically figure out lengths and angles of box steel and whatnot to put the buggy together. I have the parts: axles, engine, suspension, etc which I can measure, but I want to be able to make a model of the box frame and suspension. I could do it by hand, but figured that since I'm an IT professional by trade and am about to blow £1200 on a decent PC, I might as well try and pick up CAD. Also would be good to add to the CV.
I tried a copy of Solidworks from a friend, but was curious as to whether I'm learning to use an outdated/unpopular system (eg, if I wanted to get good at image manipulation and was using paint shop when the de facto application for most people is photoshop - not that there's anything wrong with PSP).
Thanks for the responses!
