I am a developer, FreeCAD is a bit of fun to wrangle a model out as a puzzle but it's not even in the same universe as Fusion360.

I'd love to use something like KiCAD is in the EDA world.

I highly expect, at any moment, Audodesk to pull the rug from under the hobbyist licence and I'll not be able to use it anymore.

While I feel kinda 'dirty' when I use it, I have been using it for maybe 8 years and the thing is a masterpiece. It's like a third arm for me.

Once your brain knows the whole constraints workflow it is so natural. I can very quickly model up pretty much anything I can think of to make.




Fusion360 was good until it became SaaS
