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

Disagree. I thought freecad was awesome. But I didn't use it professionally...just as a hobbyist teaching myself cad.

The most frustrating thing for me was the changes between versions and finding the right tutorial to match your version was frustrating.

It's the equivalent of gimp vs Photoshop.
