Good morning everyone!

Y’all know of any cheap or free design software programs one could download from the internets?

I’m trying to design my outdoor kitchen and I have some weird angles and such and quite frankly, my math/geometry sucks ass!

I’m not looking for anything fancy, simple 2D design where I can input known lengths, build boxes, and it helps me find unknown lengths/angles.

Thanks and have a great day!

Sketchup maybe?

Have you ever used CAD?
If not, trying to learn something, regardless of cost, is going to be a bit more difficult than using paper and a calculator.
I've been using CAD software since '94. Watching people step into it can sometimes be painful.

If your trig is slow, this will help.

Is this any good before I try to download?

If all you need it to do is calculate some angles and distances a simple triangle calculator might be good enough for you?

Just type in your 3 known lengths and or combination of angles and lengths (90 deg corner and two known sides example) and it will give you the missing numbers.
