    Hey everyone, trying to find a program that allows me to create my own 3D objects and print them. So far I have only found cura and mattercontrol. But they dont allow me to build objects, just manipulate pre-designed objects and scale and rotate. Can anyone help?

    There are also student versions of the full blown CAD programs out there that are considerably more affordable than a professional license.

    Solidworks I think is around $150 but is only good for 12mo as a student edition.
