Is solidworks the best software for sheet metal?

How about Autocad?

[SolidSolutionsManLtd]

@maikell45 SolidWorks has some very powerful sheet metal tools and we have many, many customers in the Sheet Metal industry. SolidWorks 2012 looks set to add some even more powerful sheet metal tools too. It is definitely the best choice if you need to do a lot of sheet metal and frameworks (not solely sheet metal).

What version of SolidWorks are you running here? Great video by the way!

[SolidSolutionsManLtd]

@ABadHorsie Thanks! All the features shown here are available from SolidWorks 2009.

Good video, would be great if it could be recorded in higher resolution

[SolidSolutionsManLtd]

@ghmmb It is recorded in 1280 x 1024, is it still not clear full screen on the highest quality? YouTube may have still been processing it (it stays low res until it is completely processed).

Great video! quick, direct and to the point. Would be super great if you could make the buttons icons big enough to see and add keyboard shortcuts.
