CAD / CAM websites:
www.formz.com <This is my favorite 3D CAD program! Perfect accuracy and complete toolset with FormZ Pro. Just one complaint: hard to view the sides on the fly of a 3D object. I find I have to use the 'turn table' tool/option to get it to view a side which is a bit harder and takes more time than what their 'set view' (Orbit in Google Sketchup) tool should do (they should take a Q from ViaCAD Pro). Only version 9 or later is good enough. Does 2D drafting & 3D modeling using the popular 3 methods which are solid, surface/NURBS, & mesh/sub division. I love the unique way in which it treats a solid as a mesh or surface (forget which one now). FormZ Jr. is really weak and incapable; I only recommend FormZ Pro version 9 or later.
http://www.punchcad.com/ <PunchCAD main page. Currently offering two CAD programs: ViaCAD & Shark. Both have different versions/types. Shark is more expensive and full featured & ViaCAD is low-cost with less features. Both save in multiple formats including .step (CAM), .iges (production/CAM), & .dwg (AutoCAD).
http://blog.punchcad.com/ <PunchCAD tutorials. Videos, text, & pictures. Both Shark & ViaCAD are covered.
http://www.cadsoftsolutions.co.uk/software/shark/shark-fx/ <Cadsoft Solutions Limited's info about Shark FX. Shark FX is fully featured just like AUTOCAD for about 3-4 times less the price. AutoCAD is overpriced. Shark FX is a full featured 2D & 3D digital design solution that provides solutions that address versatile modeling practices, photorealistic rendering, animation, and precision drafting capabilities all within one seamlessly integrated package. Shark FX is the complete solution for creating concept through production digital prototypes. Saves in multiple formats including .step (CAM), .iges (production/CAM), & .dwg (AutoCAD).
http://www.rhino3d.com/ <Rhino3D or Rhinoceros. This is the super professional CAD program for engineers: aerospace/mechanical etc. Users include Ford, FOX/Paramount, Hewlett-Packard, Honeywell, Honda, Nintendo, Nokia, & Northrop Grumman to name a few. Not recommended for beginners, but moderately experienced CAD users would easily use this high-end program. The photo-rendering in this is the best I've ever seen in any CAD / CAM program. Saves in .iges format along with other file types. WARNING: Some add-ons cost a few hundred dollars extra, but these add-on programs are for stuff like jewelry, shoes, or boats. For houses or cars, you won't need any add-on programs that cost you more; mechanical, automotive, architectural.
The biggest difference between Rhino3D & Shark FX is the support for a wide variety of 3-D digitizing arms, 3-D scanners, and 3-D printers. 3D printers are about $10,000.00 USD and really don't print, but make stuff about the size of a baseball bat; a few feet by a few feet.
http://kubotek3d.com/?temp-new-window-replacement=true <KeyCreator is a high end, upscale, and highly advanced direct CAD program that is basically like Google SketchUp with push/pull modeling. However, this has all sorts of other tools like that, which can do most anything! A few thousand USD is about what it costs as of 2016. VERY easy to use and fast to finish drawings/objects in 3D. Much easier than Rhino 3D, but due to lack of popularity, may not be compatible with all 'plug-ins' or 'add-ons' from other companies.
http://www.fluidray.com/?temp-new-window-replacement=true <CAD rendering program that is unbiased and can work with most any CAD drawing that is saved in a universal/popular format. Best program out there because it's low cost monthly charges; pay only when you are ready to render. Also, works off of only RAM for faster processing, instead of a video card's processor and memory. It's a real-time renderer by making it low quality whenever you move the drawing/model around. Just as easy as Keyshot, but much lower cost with the same quality. Best!
http://www.chaosgroup.com/ <Chaos Group is the company that makes V-Ray. V-Ray makes pictures (wire frame to solid; rendering) out of CAD drawings which are life-like. VERY finely detailed artwork! V-Ray is made for Rhino 3D.

voice2cad.com/ <Voice2CAD is a program that works with AutoCAD (hopefully soon other 3D modeling and/or 2D drafting software as well); it is voice recognition for CAD/CAM software that makes a lot of operations much easier and often a bit faster (most of the time, for most people). In the future, someday I'd imagine that keyboards for most people will be a thing of the past and only CAD designers will use a numpad/small keyboard many years from now (2020).
