• made tge perfeft ring shape , why will this not network curve

  Try creating the "round" ring as a base and then try to join the square somehow using the commands that I said before. If you don't understand too much about these commands or never heard about them, start with the basic tutorials from rhino3d.com. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Where to start?

  Check out rhino3d.com and download the free trial then go through every tutorial. Don't get yourself financially invested into any CAD software (it can be very expensive) as many jewelers have their own seats which you'll in-turn tryout. Source: over 2 years ago

• What do you guys think is the best 3D program for beginners wanting to design jewelry?

  Rhino3d.com and download the free trial. Go through the tuts to learn the fundamentals of CAD. From there it's up to your knowledge of how a piece of jewelry is well made. When you're ready to buy, there are a few options in the market. May take you a half or maybe a full year (or more) to get to that point. GL. Source: over 2 years ago

• Best software for beginners, not newbies

  Its not free but Rhinoceros 3D is a great CAD program that is very intuitive to learn. You can import pretty much any 2D or 3D files. The 2D aspects of use are very similar to Adobe Illustrator but with more control. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Effective June 7, 2026, Autodesk will no longer sell nor support EAGLE

  There's also https://librepcb.org/ Has anyone had time to try Horizon and/or LibrePCB and compare them to KiCad? - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• What is "this type" of PCB "called"

  On the open source front, LibrePCB seems to be the only contender, never used it myself, but have heard good things and met some devs at a conference and they were nice. The level of support you get there may be a bit more personal. Otoh, if you've never designed PCBs before, it may be hard to even tell if something is a bug... Source: 11 months ago

• Hardware design on linux

  I would throw LibrePCB into the mix. Coming from Eagle, it was easier for me to grasp than KiCad. Source: 11 months ago

• How can I make professional looking schematics for free?

  Also LibrePCB at https://librepcb.org A bit "lighter" in size than KiCad. Source: about 2 years ago

• from where should I start for designing my own PCB?

  I've been turning out some nice results from LibrePCB. It has a learning curve like anything else but its not an impossibly convoluted workflow like some of the more established FOSS programs out there. Source: over 2 years ago
