I’ve made the plunge. After many hours with Shapr3d I personally find it to be an exceptional tool and look forward to using the full version for years to come. I’ve read a lot of the posts and have noticed what people like and don’t like. I could use all the tools / equipment Leonardo or Michelangelo had for doodling and will never match what they produced…
I doodled the funky looking mototorcycle moons ago using solidworks. Like most everything I doodle, it’s far from complete. Point being, I could comfortably achieve the same results using Shaper3d at my current level of doodling with Shapr3d and I’m far from learning all the bells and whistles. Obviously my forte is not motorcycles!!! 
Anyhooooo
I’ve noticed some folks venting frustrations with Shapr3d in the posts. Remember, You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger… Buddha
Take a breath and try perhaps another approach or mostly try patience. I wouldn’t even begin to try and understand how software is developed but it’s very impressive and I personally think Shapr3d have assembled a cool team committed to providing and improving a great software program.
Yikes, ok, enough rambling…
Best of luck to ALL and Happy New Year soon!!!
Have FUN Doodling / Designing
