Download thousands (they say millions) of free CAD drawings

We haven't yet thought of a good idea why you might do this, but we felt it important to let you know you could. ThomasNet has a CAD Models section where you can download literally thousands of CAD drawings of component parts by hundreds of suppliers in a seemingly infinite number of categories--basically, any part you can think of that comes out of a factory. Best of all, each download is our favorite price (free). So maybe you want to make your new AIM icon an isometric drawing of a flange, or--hell we dunno, you're the industrial designer, you figure it out.

What planet do you come from?

You don't know why you would want to download parts?

How about so that you have an accurate 3d model of a spec part to put in your design? Or do you like to do work for no reason?
