At first try last year I could not get Solidworks to function for me.
BUT
I didn't try hard enough.
There is no doubt that Dassult (maker of solidworks) is NOT the most intuitive to use.
I signed up again this year - another $100 dollars. Fusion 360 is closer to $500
What I found was the 3Dmaker experience has more functionality to it than just solidworks
There is a feature called xDesign that is very very similar to Solidworks - of course it is - it's still Dussalt
It is a little more intuitive that Solidworks, but it all still works the same way.
It's working for me this time.
So far - I am liking it.
I am doing some kitchen cabinet design
I see that there is a machining module also.
I am also seeing that I need a much more powerful computer, but I need a big sign jobe to be able to afford that.
