What CAD programs do people use?
the three major camps seem to be:
Rhino (Kodebreaker, Badnik, NFX and a few others)
Google Sketch Up (Me, HotDeals, NoisyGiraffe and a few others)
TinkerCAD (Monsterworks, Toxic, Madman and a few others)
Sketch Up and TinkerCAD are free, Rhino I think can be depending on how legal you feel like being. Rhino is the hardest to learn but is probably the most in-depth one once you get good at it. TinkerCAD seems to be the most limited program, especially in terms of skins and scenery

I personally use Autodesk Inventor, although I had a college program or two to learn how to use it

Autodesk Maya for 3D models, and Paint.net for my 2D drawings.

Yeah, I use TinkerCAD, along with Madman, Toxic, Wolf51-50, and a few other newer builders. It really is a very limited program and I've gotten pretty much all that I can out of it. I tried to get Rhino free and legally, but wasn't able to, so I've downloaded SketchUp and will probably be using that once I take the time to learn it (realistically over the Christmas Holidays).

I use Blender for all of my 3D stuff. It's free, but there's a bit of a learning curve. Youtube tutorials are fantastic :P
