Inspired by some of the creativity shown on here recently I finally got myself a 3D printer.

I'm using Tinkercad to design models so far, it is very easy to use and free. This toy Morgan was the result of a couple of hours whilst half watching TV.



Needs some work on the bonnet curvature...

Very nice, you have already good board games for this car like nine men's morris, checkers but also Pachisi (also known as Ludo or Mensch-ärgere-Dich-nicht) are a few examples.

Do you need to be reasonable with CAD if you want to use one? I know CorelDraw but only 2D.

I have always been dreadful with 3D editing tools but I am really pleased with TinkerCAD, which is a free web based editor from AutoCAD. You drag basic shapes onto a workspace and modify and combine them. Any shape can be made into a negative, which can be grouped with and object to make spaces.

So it is a sort of 3D version of object based drawing packages. If you are not doing serious engineering it is worth a try.

For more serious work Fusion 369 is AutoCAD’s main product. Also an online system and there is a free licence for hobbyists and small companies.
