does anyone know of a tool similar to CADtools for illustrator. It seems like such an interesting piece of software and such a brilliant idea, that it's hard to believe nobody else have tried it wih illustrator or other applications?

Cadtools isnt freeware!

...hence the question of a similar application?

Wow! I was thinking that TopMod project is dead. Great news man

TopMod is very much alive now, and we are looking for users and developers interested in contributing to the project. Well, technically, I am looking for people to help out. Right now I'm the only developer on the project except for one guy who is writing a scripting engine for it. You can try out the first version of the scripting engine if you have OS/X, but it doesn't work on Windows yet.

I'll keep you posted as we finish more features. Make sure you watch the video tutorials as many features have changed since the previous version,
