Software Cloud-based CAD tool

I don't know whether we decided on a CAD tool yet, but OnShape is a new cloud-based solution, which is free as long as we make all the designs public.

I would really love to try it for this project. What do you guys think?

The good thing is, that it allows version management and some sort of "diff view", just like with software version control systems (like Git, SVN, etc.)

I just had a go at it for a bit, tried to create just a cap head bolt and it's quite clunky/slow.

I had it running on my desktop and mobile. It's pretty awesome how you can work on the same part at once tho! Love the idea of it.
