1. OpenSCAD User Manual

Publisher: Wikibooks, 2013
OpenSCAD is a free software for creating solid 3D CAD objects. Unlike most free software for creating 3D models (such as the well-known Blender), OpenSCAD does not focus on the artistic aspects of 3D modelling, but instead focuses on the CAD aspects.

2. Mechanical Drawing. Elementary and Advanced
Author: John S. Reid
