OSE CAD Solution Specification

For the purposes of OSE, we are interested in a platform with these properties:

  • Equivalent in ease of drawing things as Sketchup
  • Not a parametric modeler like Shapesmith - need to draw objects that are not definable easily with parameters.
  • Allows for drawing in 2D and extruding for ease of drawing objects.
  • Allows measurements to be made and to be set
  • Generally, an interface like Sketchup is sufficient, as it allows any shape to be drawn easily.
  • Smooth surfaces should be possible for round objects.
  • Ease of drawing things like the CEB Press, Tractor, and Power Cube
