I'm big into CAD....mostly open source tho. AutoCAD would be my 1st choice for 3D modeling, but I absolutely hate subscription software.
I love kiCAD for electronics stuff. Hard to believe so much for free. I've used it to design a number of PCBs that I had manufactured.
But there's a lot I still don't know about it or how to use.
Right now I'm duplicating the schematics and files to have a solar controller PCB made because I can use it in so many ways around here.
Very simple project.
I find CAD design fascinating and very rewarding.
