   I have used to other 3D CAD systems with some success.  Fusion and   
   ViaCAD.  I found the strictly parametric modeling of Fusion slow and   
   restrictive.

   This is very similar to the way I create line drawings in PADS by assembling   
   and moving models of features and subassemblies such as bolts and ball   
   bearings and rolled steel sections. FreeCAD looks like a good winter   
   project.
