   Also a Mac user, and happy that way. I use a program called Canvas with great success, although it's not specific to waht you're asking. It'll do almost anything. They have a trial download, I believe; http://www.Deneba.com.

   Mac user since the 128k days. Go to http://www.woodweb.com then to the software link and download Cut 1.1. Works great.

   Mac user since I bought the original 128k Mac. Have had 5 since and up to a dual G5 now.

   Cut v1.1 only works with OS 9 or in classic. Not OS X native. Bummer.

   Looks good but I'd like an OS X application.

   My first was an Apple 2+ with, are you ready? A 48K Memory!!! I maxed out with 4 COUNT 'EM 4! 48K floppy drives! I wrote my own software in Pascal and did a design program that I used for ten years. Got out of doing that stuff a while back now. Recently acquired a MINICAD 6 package from Graphsoft. Must be 7 or 8 years old. Obtained a vintage Mac Power PC upgradable to G3 status. Haven't loaded it up yet- Was wondering in anyone out there has any experience with the software-
   Thanks!(:-)Windy Wood

   PowerCADD is powerful and complete and OSX native. Its a thousand dollars so not for the timid of pocketbook. Engineered Software is the mfg and they have a downloadable demo copy to try.

   Matt,

   Check out the program Design Intuition by Gizmo Lab.

   http://www.gizmolab.com/software/

   This is a woodworking layout and design program that will also produce a 3D rendering and a cutlist. It looks quite interesting and it runs on OSX.
