My neighbors created Sketchup here in Boulder, Colorado. Most of www.nachi.org/gallery was created with Sketchup. Google bought them out a couple years ago.

It was a well kept secret Nick, I just found out about Sketchup. BTW It rivals most CADD software available today, great product!

We use it at the college, and it is a great program that can not only be used for drawing but cad drawing rendering images. There are a number of other better ones, but certainly not at the price.

I personally use a professional "licensed" version about $500 which is still 10 to 20 times cheaper than the high-end programs.

The "trial" is free and then IF you want to continue to use their program it is $495.00 dollars.

My Bad...... After clicking on this link again I see that the "Pro" version is on top of the page and that the "Free" version is at the bottom of the page.

So.... Mario {& Larry} are correct!
