Been looking for Free Deck Design software for Mac with no success.
Found lots for PC but not for Mac
Does anyone here know where to get this software?

Thanks for your help.

Is there something as specific as "deck design software"?

There are two existing threads here at ehMac that may be related:

Personally, I suggest SweetHome 3D (http://www.sweethome3d.com) - it's open-source (free) and very capable - can even export video tours of the finished product!

In a pinch, there's sketchup (free for the basic version). More a general 3D design application, but it can be used for deck design. (I designed an arbour for a deck with sketchup. Granted, I never built it, but I designed it.)
