Hello I was lucky back in 2014, my 2013 Edu. Pro license expired. I was between a rock and a hard place BUT S-UP was $595.95 back then. After Thanksgiving they ran a promo for $100.00 off I jumped on it and have been maintaining my service agreement ($120.00 yearly) ever since. I have no worries making the 120 for side jobs to wipe that out of pocket from me. Also that same deal is going on right now, if you are in continental US. Check it out… in ends the 7th I got this 2 days ago…
The PRO features as in EXPORTING files: dwg / dfx / 3D’s / dea / obj all the other 3D tools use. Plus Lay Out for PDF construction drawings and the Sand Box tools for typograph and don’t forget you can still bring in Google map stuff so… NO not to “just” model the AR-15. But I can make sure it is a Solid- Manifold and export it out as a STL file for 3D printing. They give you a great value and it is up to you to get the most out of it …Peace and good luck with it
…Peace…
