Good point. I do usually 'Save As' .dwg when the file is going out, unless there's a specific request, where I would include both.frank81 wrote:Personally, I stick to .dwg files. Industry standard, so most programs are going to have to at least provide a converter to their own format if they want to be relevant. Plus if you ever get into CNC, either DIY or sending off to a shop, you'll want a .dwg file. Proprietary file formats are fine until that program goes away.

As for CNC et al, Imsi's been trying to tease me into buying their 3D Printer package. Boy would that be fun. But everytime I check my Mad Money Fun Fund it keeps showing about 4 thousand bucks short...
