A friend of mine is a professional welder. He has his own business, and has designed and builds a trailer that is all customized for trenchers and boring utility lines under roads and such. He is super busy. He bought a 5x10 foot computer controlled cutting table. He is a welder not a computer person. Now he is stuck trying to figure out the steps involved in drawing a whatever in HyCAD and then saving the DWG file and getting that into his cutting program. I am going to attempt to help him, but first I have to figure out HyCAD. It is a free CAD program for simple designs.

First step is design some object that can be cut out of steel or aluminum or whatever metal. I may make up something with our business logo and have that cut out and powder-coated. Hmmm, what to build, what to build.

Any ideas?
