Autocad alternatives (feddit.dk)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Im in the progress of planning a complete home improvement, where all the interiors is pulled down, floors torn up, and only the shell is intact, before rebuilding everything.

But in the designing process i miss the ease of a drawing tool as autocad that we used in school as an mason apprentice.

So home improvement people, what is a good alternative to autocad, for detailed blueprints and measurements?

I guess you mainly use Autocad for creating 2D sketches? Maybe Inkscape could already be enough for that. It's not really made for engineering stuff but you can add plugins to add dimensions for example and make accurate drawings relatively easily.
