Fusion360 is free for personal/hobby use.
There's also FreeCAD, OpenSCAD, and a number of other free/cheap products that may be better suited for a hobby/individual budget and that will run under *nix. Unfortunately I haven't kept up with the Mac Market for quite a few years and don't know what's available there.
I mostly use OpenSCAD and occasionally SketchUp, Fusion360 is on my to-do list and I have it installed on this machine. I need something that'll work with my Maslow CNC and want a step up from Inkscape. I'll need to build a bunch of cabinets and storage, turning one end of a barn (about 20x24') into a woodshop, slowly...
