Hi to all,

I have been using SolidWorks since his 2001 plus edition. And what I can tell you that it is excellent with all his bugs.

About his wrong mass prop. I always calculate all mass in separate excel tables where beside mass prop. calculate expenses and time needed to build a boat and then with that table project manager built Gant chart and plan.

I it true statement that beside metal sheet, SolidWorks does not have plate development but his add called SurfaceWorks has it. SurfaceWorks is surface modeler where you have 100% control of your surface, develop able or not.

Precision of developed plates is accurate enough and you can get lines where you need to apply pressure with bending machine.

And final but not last SolidWorks has it own PDM. With PDM and server it has capability to several people work on project in the same time and to use same files as envelope.

That is what I can say about SolidWorks. All his function were tested in production facility in practice. Wright now I can't send you pictures of boats but if someone has doubt I will posted it.

That's all folks.

Cheers
