What 3D modeling software to make enclosures?

Postby ajames » Tue Oct 30, 2012 8:23 pm

I would like to make enclosures with my laser cutter. I have Coreldraw but want to find a good 3D modeling program to get the dimensions right. What programs do people use?

There are a number of enclosures up on Thingiverse to easily modify.
