In Smashwebs, Inc’s software plug of the week we are featuring Solidworks 3D CAD Software.  Solidworks is a program that allows its users to model in full 3D at a fraction of the cost of its competitors, such as Autocad.  Solidworks is an excellent program that is essentially a parasolid-based modeler that utilizes a parametric based approach to create models and assemblies.

In lamen’s terms, its good.
