About
LinceCAD is a desktop 2D and 3D CAD application for opening, editing, and saving DWG and DXF drawings on Windows and Linux. It opens DWG formats from R14 through 2018 and DXF from R12 through 2018 without conversion, preserving objects it does not edit when drawings are saved. Drafting tools include object snaps, polar tracking, grips, dimensions, multileaders, tables, layers, dynamic blocks, attributes, external references, and layouts with vector PDF plotting. It also provides 3D solid modeling, a GPU-based viewer, photorealistic rendering, web map services, LAS/LAZ point clouds, terrain models, contour lines, PDF-to-DWG conversion, raster vectorization, and OCR. Users can automate tasks with AutoLISP, a local Python API, and an MCP server for AI assistants. The interface and help are available in English and Spanish. LinceCAD offers a 30-day full-feature trial, with a planned one-time perpetual license per user.

About
SOLVESPACE is a free (GPLv3) parametric 3d CAD tool. Modeling 3d parts, drawing with extrudes, revolves, helixes and Boolean (union/difference/intersection) 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. Sketch sections using lines, rectangles, datum lines and points. Sketch circles, arcs of a circle, datum circles, cubic Bezier segments, C2 interpolating splines, and more.
