Help - I'm trying to approximate solidworks

Rhino Rhino for Windows
1

I’m looking for a rhino plugin (or standalone, if necessary) that will allow me to evaluate physical assemblies. Things like collision detection, mated/assembled objects, etc. I am working on a very mechanical project and need to know that things will move properly.

Thanks!

Hope this helps,

Thanks, Dan - I’ll check both of those out.
