The 3DToolBox is a software system for use in the Electric Utility industry to design power substations. It includes a comprehensive library of over 600 3D blocks of materials and equipment such as structures, insulators, switches and power transformers. PSSAG is a program for sagging transmission and distribution lines and automatically spotting poles. These programs are available for NO COST to Public Utilities. All others please inquire. You can find additional details (and inquire) at www.the3dutility.com.For Ford Mustang enthusiast, I have created a set of colorized wiring diagrams for model years 1964 through 1972.
