Affinity products are wonderful. Affinity Photo is not as good as Photoshop but it's getting there and prices don't even compare. Affinity Design is excellent.

Affinity products are wonderful. Affinity Photo is not as good as Photoshop but it's getting there and prices don't even compare. Affinity Design is excellent. I usually draw 2D shapes in Design then export to svg into FreeCAD for extruding. Works perfectly. Rhino is, in my experience, full of strange, hidden bugs. Solidworks is fantastic but so expensive it's not worth considering.
