It's a paintball gun

If any of you guys play paintball, then you'll understand this next paragraph including pb terminolgoy.
scetched it up in spanish class put it into cad when I got home... no it's not supposed to be a wrath and the internals aren't aligned.
not a specific gun, just one I drew up. Based off an ego's internals except a different bolt and different rammer... much different rammer. Uses a single qev to push this hybrid (not the brand) rammer into a valve that will let air pressure through the rammer, bolt, and to the paintball... it's open-bolt as well.

Still needs a lot of work...

Mmmh, what is cad for exactly, i mean, i thought it was a program for who makes architecture project or something like that.
For that kind of drawing i would have used FreeHand...
Just my 2 cents however

CAD is a vector program. It uses real dimensions and math to define shapes.
It's used for anything engineer-related, whether it be design buildings, car parts, or even layouts for curcuit boards.

I am working on actually producing this paintball gun, and with CAD, all I have to do is draw it up, plug it into the CNC, and it will mill each part out of metal.

Computer Aided Drafting.

Stuff for architects.

Its not a very hard program. If you just draw lines its easy. We had to draw pictures in drafting class and then I almost failed because I'd just do other peoples work cuz it was simple to me.

The program I'm using right now kinda sucks. I'm hoping to purchase EasyCAD or AutoCAD LT sometime soon. I can't afford the normal AutoCAD ($3400) or FastCAD ($2000), and I purchase all my programs.
