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

This is why I will continue putting up with FreeCAD.

To be honest, I prefer SolveSpace. It’s significantly simpler and lacks a lot of features FreeCAD has, but it doesn’t crash and does just enough for me to be able to design whatever I need for 3D printing.

I think they both have their advantages. I found SolveSpace a lot more flexible with how you can create constraints. In FreeCAD constraining a line in proportion to another line is AFAIK impossible but at least not at all intuitive in FreeCAD but it’s quite easy in SolveSpace.

I greatly miss the ability to simply purchase a program on a disk for a given year and just have access to that tool.

otoh you have stuff like FreeCAD or OpenSCAD completely free and usable AND you could modify it as you please.

Back then FOSS CAD was barely usable.
