Woodworking Software Programs

Woodworking hasn't been immune to all the advances in computer technology.  This is especially true when it come to software programs.  I thought I'd look over the Internet and bring to you some of the programs that I think are most useful to woodworkers.  If you come across other programs that you use with success in the shop, forward them on to me and I'll add them to the list.  When I get the list compiled, I'll add them all the Resources page on the website.

The woodworker's calculator is showing as if infected with something by virus progs.
