I propose a test.

Don't forget to take a few snap shots

I agree with Neil... Draftsight for 2D. Cant beat it. If you absolutly have draw in 3D, buy a cheap old license, say Acad 2009 from Craigslist or something. If you want to render models, materials and such, Solidworks, Inventor etc. If you want to drive yourself batty try Blender.

Eitherway have fun

I've owned a Rage II for several years and really gets the job done but it's always a "hold onto your hat" event with the bigger material, noisey etc. Recently I've been drooling over a wet saw, 50rpm Baileigh or equiv. Certainly the carbide tip 14"'ers would be more suitable than the carbide wheel chop saws especially if you you have to attack any aluminum.
