Inkscape
Inkscape is a vector graphics editor. Its goal is to implement full support for the Scalable Vector Graphics. The word Inkscape is a portmanteau of the words ink and landscape.
I use it to create graphics and drawings; then at a later time I will use these files with the vinyl cutter and the laser cutter.
Luckily after some practice, I don't find it so difficult, thanks to my skills in Illustrator and the old freehand.
Tinkercad
It is an easy-to-use 3D CAD tool.
I practised with some tutorials and I tried also to make a model of my final project

OpenSCAD
It is a free software for creating solid 3D objects and it focus especially on the CAD aspects of 3D modelling.
There are two main modelling techniques: one is the constructive solid geometry (aka CSG) and the second is extrusion of 2D outlines.
Some modelling trials:
Solid works
I used to work on it, but for this assignement I decided to work with Tinkercad
