3D Theory here! Welcome to a special edition where we take a deep dive into the world of CAD software! In this video, I step away from our usual vlog format at the small 3D print farm and focus on a crucial question for any product designer: Which CAD software is best? Join me as we explore seven different software options, ranging from industry giants like SolidWorks, Fusion 360, and AutoCAD to tools favored in the film and VFX industries, such as Maya and Blender.

Coming from more of an "artistic" background, Shapr3D for "CAD" and Nomad Sculpt (organic shapes) have been awesome for my brain to comprehend. They are affordable yet powerful.

For 3d printing I love using fusion 360 hobbyists account. I had the educational 3 year license which included all autodesk softwares which was awesome. Hobbyists account you can almost do everything except edit others stls.

Don’t forget plasticity. It has a one time purchase fee of 140 bucks. It is pretty wonderful.
