power/usb control box... template making software?

[Scott]

I'm not even sure what to google . I tried template maker but got 1000's of sites for webpage templates.
Basically I know what I want and where I want it on the project box but just want to draw it and print it out. does anyone know of a program that will do this? thanks in advance

Hi Scott,

Look for CAD software e.g. SketchUp http://www.sketchup.com/

I use TurboCAD Deluxe 20. It is a 2013 release version but is available very cheap now (£14.94 from Amazon). It may be a bit of a learning curve but will do all you need and plenty more.

I have used simple drawing apps to print onto sticky lables, makes cutting projects easier, sketchup is popular, Inkscape may work for you or even gimp or paintnet will do squares, circles and lines quickly.  (I have CorelDraw and it's great).

This is what I would use too - I have made tens of project decals using this software and printing onto self adhesive label material and then covering them in transparent Fablon.

Well I could only run to 'student' on offer at the moment (often offers with Corel) x9 out soon.  But as I am on win10 older versions have glitches and Corel won't patch em.  The drawing side of the package great for scale technical drawings, prints out spot on, almost cad but.........

Thanks all for your replies. A good friend of mine sorted it for me. Thanks Scope Doctor

You'll be amused to learn that I am still on V5.0 which must be over 15 years old!! It is accurate though - I used to use it to produce business forms when I had my own printing company.

OnShape works great. I use it when designing parts for my 3D-printer.
