program to make cab building schematics

hey guys. I'm curious if there's a program out there to make schematics to a cab you're building. or do people just use photoshop, or an equivalent program?

WinISD will tell you the correct box size for a given speaker/tuning frequency.

I know a lot of people (myself included) then use Google SketchUP to create a 3D version of the box to get an idea of how the parts will fit together and how the box will look.

Is this what you were asking?

Me and my dad built some cabinets. We just got a few books on it, designed our own folded horn, and drew it up using architectural style plans.

It was really fun doing it all by hand.

that was close to what I was asking. I was also wondering about getting a 2D render of the cab. an outline of it with specific measurements of each panel, and such.
