Can anyone tell me of a good program I can use to make up plans?

I've just bought DesignCad (V16.1), which seems to be the bees knees for about $200. It does both 2D & 3D, and allows rotation, rendering & lots of good things. Comes with a good manual, & there's also a user forum similar to this. I'm still learning to drive it to its full potential, but it seems pretty good for most things.
This is the link to the forumDesignCad Forum (http://forums.upperspace.com/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=2)

Autocad although it may have a steep learning curve is the industry standard by virtue of how many seats there are in the world.
Yes it is an expensive program but a clone version A9CAD is available for free.
Here is a site to obtain it from. www.a9tech.com (http://www.a9tech.com) they are the distributors.
Enjoy.
