The two best modelers I've seen for that kind of casual solid modeling are Plasticity https://www.plasticity.xyz and Moment of Inspiration http://moi3d.com

Its good that author of Plasticity (@nkalen on HN) had finally switched[0] to use Parasolid (and abandoned previous plans to use Russian C3D kernel) after Russia started full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022[1]... in eight years since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014.[2]

I have seen MOI before, but it wasn't quite my thing though maybe I'll revisit it.

Plasticity though is gorgeous, especially for a solo developer. Wow.
