I'm taking a break from ongoing work in Creo 2 right now. The last project I worked on was in a customer's Creo 3 environment. I've used AutoCAD and Solidworks in the past some but have spent the bulk of my career using evolutions of Pro/E.

It truly is great stuff. I used it to figure out the dimensions for the octisserie I built for my 911 a few years back. It made the arithmetic quick and I was able to spit out a 2D drawing which I used to cut, weld and assembly the unit myself.

More recently, I used it to redesign my old neighbor's staircase up the side of her stilt house. Creo is most definitely overkill for that kind of work but it made it simple to develop parts list and communicate clearly to my help (neighbor and my wife) what needed to be cut and how long to cut it. Worked out great!

My day job is for a large contract manufacturer. I work in a small R&D division and have spent time designing components for medical devices and consumer electronics.
