BlockCAD - Lenny - 2025-09-27
Hello folks,
it surprised me that there is practically no info here about BlockCAD created by Anders Isaksson. Especially when I discovered that the man is/was also a member on this forum (last visit many years ago).
It was the first Lego related program I did use. I know it's not directly associated with LDraw (seems like it has it's own filetype LGO, but support DAT files - I didn't test it), but there are some options that work with LDraw. I think the man did the awesome work since there is only a small installer and here you are - you can build with most of bricks. His website is still online and installer and program still works!
https://www.blockcad.net/ (although there is older version than on sites with games and software)
What are your opinions? Did you guys use BlockCAD?

Most of the BlockCAD talk is on LUGNET, the former home of our "forums".

Oh, I see. I'm still interested if others have some experience with using this software.
BTW. If some of you guys edit wikipedia there is some info here and of course you can contribute:
