[ML-General] 3D Cad New Hotness?

[smeeon at gmail.com]

I'm learning 123D Design and its partner products. I just couldn't get into Onshape but it looks great. 

I think 123D is closest to sketchup in its similarities.

I've downloaded the 2016 Pro trial, but I'm afraid to use software that becomes unusable in case I still need to use it.  Serial reinstalls might work.

Cycles renderer(the most advanced renderer packaged in the software) gets extremely realistic renders for skin, architectural visualization and other materials.
