> I wish there was some CAD software that had such a reasonably priced hobby use option, but SOLIDWORKS is $99 per year, Alibre has a cheapish option but they slightly annoyingly shift a lot of features into the £1000+ versions. Probably the best option at the moment tbf (other than piracy).

FreeCAD as a general purpose CAD software is not that bad. I've used it in combination with KiCAD that we use at our company to design PCB and for our needs is more than enough and works fairly well.

I've used FreeCAD. It's pretty terrible.
