What cad software are you guys using to knock up prototypes of your builds ?

I made it up as I went along for my G4D build but this time I want to see my idea before I get the tools out.

Sketchup, free and relatively easy 3d modeling.

I do all my designs in 2D using Draftsight, and then import into sketchup to create 3D renders.
