There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

A little different form the normal fare yet utterly entrancing in it's own way. The quote from Melville says it all: I hope we make it out there and I lament that I won't be going.

smarter alien understands spaceflight without harder, has longer life can make it go there but human is stupid and all dies nearly soon without even getting farther than earth  maybe it will be found flag on the moon but nothing ever care at all even if it found
To summary Neil DeGrasse Tyson think in Chimpanzee is 98% similar but is difference made that called 2% is understand physics, math, much more than chimp ever can. Maybe alien is 10% 50% 100% smarter than human

In October I started a thread about what kind of free 3D modeling software to use and I decided to give SketchUp Maker a try. Now I finally found out that one feature that I really need is only available in the Pro version (which is ~500€) and I'm not going to spend that kind of money especially when all I need additionally to the free stuff is to add/subtract 3D shapes.
Looked around some more and now found AutoDesk 123D Designer which seems to have all I need. I'm installing it now and will give it a spin.
Anybody else here have some experience with that tool?
Cheers!

I don't know much about AutoDesk, but what does SketchUp have that Blender[^] doesn't? It's come a long way over the years.

I did have a look at that one today too, but that beast is absolute overkill.
And out of the box I couldn't even figure out how to do a very simple 3D drawing.
It sure does have a lot of functions and usage scenarios, but neither do I want to animate, build a game
etc., all I want to do is 3D models of gadgets, jigs and furniture I'm building in my shop.
Well, that said Autodesk 123D Designer seems to have what I need and it's free.
I'll report on my success as soon as I looked into it a little deeper.
Cheers!

I could be wrong but I thought Marc Clifton had some experience with 3d modeling software. 123D, I do not know.

erm,
You mean "Design"?
Sorry this is not a constructive comment. Awfully philosphical a statement for a Monday morning but here goes ... have you tried Googling "tutorials for 123D Design"?
And what JF said ... (only in caps)

I don't think it is available anymore - and certainly isn't being developed - but you could take a quick google for trueSpace[^]
Wierd interface, but I found it really simple to use once you got used to that - and powerful too (like re-time editing in a 3d world with rendering and gravity and collision detection turned on)
Unfortunately another one that MS bought and chucked away

This is crazy,
I can't believe I didn't think to come up with this yesterday:
http://meshlab.sourceforge.net/[^]
There's a primative template menu group that will fabricate various one-offs which you can then extend into the realm of 3D-space willy-nilly, ad infinitum, uzw ...
Yes? No? Maybe?

I was pretty set on publishing my (so slow) developing Menu and Ribbon hybrid class (aptly named MenuRibbon) for WPF on CodePlex!
Tonight I tried to create the repo on CodePlex and it kept telling me that HG was not recommended, did I want to try Git per chance?
Unfortunately TortoiseGit doesn't work (out of the box)!
So I was googling for a git client, downloaded "GitHub for Windows" a couple of click later, behold, my MenuRibbon is on GitHub! 
https://github.com/superlloyd/MenuRibbon/[^]
Geez, that was too eazy! 
Go on, fork like crazy like I know you want to do!

I asked the missus: "How about tonight then?", but she not so politely replied that I go and fork myself!

Hmm. I have no problems with TortoiseGit however I use that mostly on GitHub.

Thanks!
Yeah it requires msysgit to work or something... I found GitHub for Windows before I found msysgit!

We've been using Git at work for a few years, and I have only used the commandline tools.
In July I put a project[^] on GitHub and discovered GitHub for Windows.
Yeah! I really like it. It's simple, takes care of most tasks.
I've only had to drop back to the console once to take care of some conflicts when merging a branch.
The integrated support into Visual Studio 2013 is nice as well.
