**Links to CAD/CAM tools from our users:**  
**Software** (installed locally on a device)

- [Autodesk Fusion 360](https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/overview) Free for use by hobbyists, F360 serves as a one-stop shop for all tasks for design through cutting.
- [Trimble Sketchup Make](https://www.sketchup.com/download?sketchup=make) Is free CAD software that’s easy to learn and use.

**Web-Based Tools** (Use any OS and an HTML5 browser)

- [Makercam.com](http://Makercam.com) turns SVG vector paths into toolpaths (requires flash)
- [my.sketchup.com](http://my.sketchup.com) Is a lightly less feature-laden version of Sketchup Make on the web
