Oh, AutoDesk…you have such a way with words. Honestly, I would rather learn to design in OpenSCAD than send AutoDesk a single penny.

We need something like Affinity for CAD. Surely it must be possible to make a CAD program that can do the basics you need for 3D printing without all the advanced simulations and analysis. I just want to draw some sketches and extrude them.
OpenCAD. But it’s like Photoshop vs Gimp. But also with a bigger learning curve.
Gimp I got the hang of pretty quickly coming from Photoshop, but switching to OpenCAD has not been a smooth transition from AutoCAD.
I agree with that statement.
I’d say it’s more like Premiere vs ffmpeg.
That’d be open SCAD.
Oh, I literally misread it as OpenSCAD. Laughing at my stupid brain right now.
Solvespace might be exactly what you’re looking for. It is FOSS and works well for simple models. Some functionality is missing though, for example chamfers and fillets.
I’ll definitely need to check this out, thanks!
I wish I had time and domain knowledge to add those two to Solvespace. It’s the only thing that I’m really missing. And for 3D printing design chamfers are really necessary, the models print much nicer when there are no sharp corners.
