<\/A>If you like to mod cars or do your own specialty 3D designs for custom automotive parts, have we got a deal for you!

Last year at SEMA<\/A>, Jay Rogers<\/A>, CEO of Local Motors<\/A>, announced a partnership with Siemens PLM<\/A> that would make Solid Edge CAD<\/A> software available through the Forge<\/A>, Local Motors\u2019 open source community of designers, engineers, fabricators, makers and automotive enthusiasts. This year, Local Motors is back with a free trial offer so you can experience the possibilities yourself.

I\u2019ll be at the Local Motors booth (Search for 37045 in the SEMA Map<\/A> )at this year\u2019s SEMA Show, along with Solid Edge Wizard Barry Shillingford to show off Solid Edge Design1 and all the possibilities you can bring to life with this affordable, easy-to-use professional grade 3D CAD software.  If you have a cool automotive part, and idea for a part, a need to modify a common aftermarket part\u2026 stop by and let\u2019s work together to see how Solid Edge Design1 software can help bring your ideas to life. Don\u2019t have your own design-ready concept? That\u2019s ok. Stop by to see some of the current Local Motors projects that members of the Forge have already built.
