Does anyone use solidworks?
Is it the best for designing curvy shapes for milling?
Why can I only find a price for the academic version?
Don't like this request a quote style of selling, sounds like they plan to screw me until the pips squeak. How much did you pay?
Much ta

I use Solid Edge which is similar to Solid Works but written by 2 completely different software companys.
Solid Edge cost about £4000 and about £1100 a year for maintenance (updates etc).
The academic licence's are usually far cheaper and should be fine for what you are doing.

The Alibre online store accepted my order and took my money and I'm in Australia.
Perhaps they think that Oz is another US state or part of Canada ...

Yes I had a problem to start with as I had the free registered version.
Spoke to Alibe and they told me to remove all cookies and try again and itw worked for me .
Ironically the first time I got directed to a UK reseller and I didn't go further.
later I went back, deleted cookies and got it but the sale on the debit card went to the same UK reseller and was listed at $99
Checked the bank this morning but nothing has come out yet.
Program downloaded and up and running, just need to watch some tutorials now.John S -
