Like most people around the world, I’m currently sitting at home, waiting for this whole pandemic to pass. After countless hours of Netflix and YouTube, I stumbled across an absolutely beautiful video about black holes. If you have 7 and a half minutes to spare, you should definitely watch it. If you don’t, watch it anyway! So, there you go…
(By the way, it’s a VR-/360°-video, so don’t hesitate to look around, during the video)

Honey, I’m having an Affair!
I’ll be honest. I’m in a love-hate relationship with Viacad Pro. On one side, it is a very capable little low budget CAD, that does everything I really need. But on the other side, I have also encountered the ugly side of this program. Slow development and bug fixing, just to name a few. So, I hope you’ll excuse if I flirt with the other CAD’s in town from time to time.
ViaCad’s ACIS-cousins Turbocad, Vellum and FormZ were not really to my taste and I’m still very sceptic about cloud-based stuff (the work morale of my router is not the highest, unfortunately). Another program I once downloaded for trial was ZW3D. It’s a CAD made in China and looks and feels a bit like Inventor or Solidworks. Unfortunately, the price is also in the range of these 2 programs. So, after the trial period I uninstalled it an didn’t think about it anymore.
However, a few days ago, I got an Email from ZWSOFT. It states, that due to Corona-virus, ZW3D is free for everyone until the end of May. So, if you need a CAD for the next 2 months, or just want to give this Chinese beauty a try, here’s the link: https://www.zwsoft.com/
