Does anyone know of any free/shareware software for engineers.I'm looking for tools that I could load on my desktop and have easy access to everyday calculations, convertors, threads, o-rings, material etc.
Thanks in advance~

The most useful bit of freeware I ever found for engineering is a small program called "Convert" by Josh Madison. Go to http://www.joshmadison.com/software/ and get a copy.

Try.. http://www.thomasnet.com
if you are looking for the typical catalog type stuff.
Their PartSpec® option is handy for CAD drawings.
These might be interesting too..

A google search for engineering freeware will give you many sites. You can choose from the discipline that iterests you. Asking this forum is a little lazy.
