Valve amp chassis software

Hi Guys,

I am looking to build a valve amp and Morgan Jones mentions using software to layout a template for planning and cutting out tubes abs component holes .

Can anyone recommend a free software for windows or MAC that is easy to use?

Thanks
 
http://www.frontpanelexpress.com to do real mechanical 2D design (free software). SketchUp is usefull for 3D design not for a 2D design with real dimensions (It can do it but is difficult). Front panel software has a .dxf export feature and the file can be directly used by a machine to manufacture.

The software is intended to do the mechanical panels or boxes from the site but you can use the software just to do a 2D design 😉

This how I use the 2 softwares for my system designs (Front Designer & SketchUp Pro).
