  AutoCAD has an free education version: http://www.autodesk.com/education/free-software/all http://www.autodesk.com/education/free-software/all Very easy to obtain, but it can't be used for commercial applications obviously. There's also OpenSCAD (GPL): http://www.openscad.org http://www.openscad.org

  I haven't found a free, native Mac CAD software that I like as much as Autodesk Inventor for Windows yet, but there are a number of free one available for the Mac. 123Design comes to mind [1] You can also peruse the comparison of CAD software at Wikipedia.

  >> What's the best free cad modelling tool for osx? I've been using SolveSpace: http://solvespace.com/index.pl http://solvespace.com/index.pl There is a Mac port but it's still on a branch. You can find a link to it in the forum thread here: http://solvespace.com/forum.pl?action=viewthread&parent=586 http://solvespace.com/forum.pl?action=viewthread&parent=586 Like the windows version it is a single executable file, so just put it somewhere and run it. It's worth reading the reference from top to bottom. Fantastic little program.
