2D CAD software for Mac OSX

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but does anyone have any recommendations?

I was looking for free or cheap modelling software , siemens do a free 2d software , solidedge , i don't know if it will work on mac's though. Delcam might do something to suit if you do a search.
