Not sure what heading this should go under but since I consider design programs to be tools I will park them here. If in the wrong location then I'm sure the right person will move this to the appropriate location.
As some of you might know I use a 2 D drawing program on a daily basis. When I have time (which is seldom) I work at learning Solidworks. Solidworks is not a free program but there are a few out there for the taking. Although I have not tried either of these two programs I thought some of you might like the opportunity to try your creative hand in the solid modeling world. I hope that this will be of some use to some of you. Keep us posted as to your efforts and progress. Good luck.

This is a 3 D program.

This is a 2 D Sketching program. Not sure how it works in comparison to a 2 D drawing program such as Autocad or Draftsight but it looks interesting. I might have to play with this one myself.
