Hi all
I have my fuselage design hand drawn with the standard three views
Before I go any further I am thinking about how I can get it transfered into a CAD 3D image
I would like to be able to alter the shape and refine the nose to fuselage intersection and the cabin to rear fuselage area
The construction will be composite and I am trying to acheive a ``coke bottle`` apearance
I want to build a scale model then a full size plug so I will want to be able to print bulkheads/sections at various points allong the fuselage which can be used to build model/plug in various scales
Do I need to buy some massively expensive bit of software for this and spend a year learning how it works or is there some simple cheap way to acheive this (ha ha)
