- you are retiring after 26 years working for a steel fabricator.
- you need to supplement your income, as many of us boomers will have to do in
later years.
- most of the stuff you have worked on has nothing to do with beams, columns, or
connection design.
- you have worked on cranes, girders, bridges, trusses, spans, rails,
stairs, towers, platforms,
gangways, floats, marine assemblies, machinery, movable bridge repair, and other
stuff.
- you have AutocadLT 2007 at your home office, Adobe 8.0, and MS Office. 

What software would you acquire to produce more efficient, fast, and accurate
detail drawings for a variety of customers?

Any comments are welcome. Hopefully I will be able to work part time and still
enjoy what is left of my days doing the important things, travel, gardening,
fishing, etc.

Happy New Year to All, and may infrastructure work GO GO GO!
