Hi Maine,Hello,
Anyone know of a free drafting app for drawing woodworking prints. I use to use Sketchup free. But now, it’s not usable on my Mac. All dimensions are mirrored back wards and the program doesn’t work like it use to. I’m looking for something simple. I don’t have a drafting table or I’d do it there as I have an associates degree in mechanical drafting. I’ve looked at some of the free downloads but they’re way more than I want to deal with and a lot say try it then they want you to buy it. I don’t want to have to pay $100 a year for something simple and basic. Any help appreciate. I like the push pull etc on SketchUp, something similar would be nice.

Unfortunately, DeltaCad is out of business. I've tried several alternatives and none are as simple as DeltaCad. The best I've found so far is LibreCad. It's a free program so you might as well give it a try.I have been using DeltaCad for almost 20 years. It's 2D (not 3D) but so is that side of my drafting brain.
Most CAD programs have a fairly steep learning curve. DeltaCad has a built-in tutorial where you draw a five-function calculator and I periodically go back to it and usually pick up something.
Initial price is a flat $39.95 and occasional upgrades are $29.95. These days, I consider anything that costs less than a tank of gas affordable. Both Winduhs and Mac versions are available. I run the Winduhs version on Linux via Oracle’s VirtualBox. A 30-day free trial is available.
As an example, here is a partial layout of the X-cross in my tall vise design that I drew with DeltaCad. Also, the 2021 tall vise drawings in the resources section on this site were drawn with DeltaCad.
