I invested weeks into learning FreeCAD's sketcher and part design only to come to the conclusion that it's got too many problems to use. A quarter of the features in part design run into issues as soon as something involves a curved surface. If you're doing anything non-trivial (threads for example), it'll slow to a crawl. I've had about 10 segfaults in the past 2 weeks. I want to see it succeed but I keep running into blockers and not having any workarounds.
Are there any other free or low-cost options for Linux? I just need something that works. I'm not doing any commercial work. #technology
