Just loaded the latest snap. I remember seeing this a few years ago. I'll have to make sense of the UI but I extruded a cylinder and it looks like the program has promise. I'm wondering if it does assemblies yet as that is key.

EDIT: I see you linked some tutorials so I will have to check those out!

That looks handy! And the project appears relatively active. Actually its a bit odd to not have come across this before.
