Unfortunately Autodesk have rather taken the wind out of the sails of
the open-source CAD / CAM projects.
Fusion 360 (Windows and Mac only) is (at the moment) zero cost to
hobbyists and offers very good CAD and excellent CAM.

I can't help expecting Autodesk to wait until everyone is committed to
their offering then "turning evil" and starting to charge.
