Default CAD on Linux.

Anybody here have any experience with CAD programs running under
Linux?

There sure are many. Any favourites?
I will need 3D capability and export in .dxf and/or .dwg
I won't need much of a rendering engine.

Any and all help will be much appreciated.


Some distros let have "Design" or "CAD" subsections in their package
managers. You can take a look there for something you like.

Also, if there's a CAD program on Windows you like, you might be able to
get it going on Linux with Wine.
