SOLVESPACE is a parametric 3d CAD program. Applications include:
modeling 3d parts - draw with extrudes, revolves, and Boolean
(union / difference) operations
modeling 2d parts - draw the part as a single section, and export
DXF, PDF, SVG; use 3d assembly to verify fit
3d-printed parts - export the STL or other triangle mesh expected
by most 3d printers
preparing CAM data - export 2d vector art for a waterjet machine
or laser cutter; or generate STEP or STL, for import into
third-party CAM software for machining
mechanism design - use the constraint solver to simulate planar
or spatial linkages, with pin, ball, or slide joints
plane and solid geometry - replace hand-solved trigonometry and
spreadsheets with a live dimensioned drawing
