What is an easy to learn program for drawing cabinet plans
Loki:
For 2D build plans I rather draw on paper too, but nothing beats programs like sketchup when you are still working out your ideas so you can already have a good view how it will look. :)
shardian:
You can get a 30 day trial of AutoCAD from the autodesk website. The only catch is that any plots you do will have a "sample" watermark on them.

2D = DeltaCAD. Full working trial. Just re-install when run-out. Small footprint. Professional looking plan templates.

QFT. I love delta cad.

I used Microstation to draw up the plans for my control panel. I believe there is a free home use/student version you can get. You would need some basic CADD experience though before I recommend going that way.

Amabilis "3D Canvas" and there's a full version that you can use free of charge. http://www.amabilis.com
You'll find some of my models built with it here:
