      @hi OpenSCAD is the 3D cad software that I use on OpenBSD and in current it has recently been updated

        @hi

        A toss-up.

        For simple stuff, I like TinkerCAD which is browser-based and freely available, but not freely-licensed. Good for throwing together a quick item to 3d-print. But also has a fairly low ceiling, and I find myself hitting limits pretty quickly there.

        For stuff more complex than TinkerCAD can handle, I spent a while learning Blender. It's open-licensed (GPL) and has **far more** power than I'll ever learn/use. But it did the job.

        Alas, it now uses Vulkan which doesn't work on some of my hardware where I'd be more prone to using it, so I haven't used it as much in the last couple years.

          @hi i have no real-world experience to lend credence to my opinions, but programming shapes in OpenSCAD was very fun. so satisfying to refactor a physical object, and to make everything line up perfectly etc.

              @hi though it depends on your definition of simple 🙃
