Hi all. I am moving away from Fusion and looking for a new software suite to spend my hours learning to use. By summer I’ll own a desktop CNC (not sure which yet). Does anyone have experience with both Alibre and FreeCAD? Alibre has a paid license, to which I’m not opposed. But if FreeCAD does well with 3D milling, not sure I need to bother paying for the Alibre license.
My initial use is simple 3D modeling for my 3D printer (I’m not a designer, but I like the parametric aspect and history tree feature of Fusion)…but then I’ll want to extend that same software skillset to subtractive 3D milling when I build my CNC.
Anyways, just curious if there is feedback from anyone who has tried modeling/milling with both. Thank you for your time.
