[vet-mm] 3d drawing package

[Paul Maxted]

Hi Marian,

We have been using ProDeskTop with our junior boys with some success.
Because of its very low pricing it is very attractive to use in schools (I
think it is free for students to use at home). There are also extensive
tutorials around to support the implementation of it. If you think this
might suit you  email me and I will point you in the right direction.

Cheers
Paul
