    If the latest builds aren’t able to meet your needs I’ve been thinking about trying blender+ a parametric cad plugin. There are some limitations, but it might be able to do what I need without having a painful to learn UX

    But people have been telling me freecads latest releases (maybe the nightlies?) Have gotten much better so I’ll probably give it another shot

      Solvespace has been working for me, but I don’t do complicated cad. I recommend getting familiar with solvespace if you want to try the cadsketcher blender plugin since it is basically solvespace glued into blender.

        I love the simplicity of SolveSpace but I wish they’d have a loft or sweep feature and it would support free form modelling in some way. Then it would be perfect for me.
