For 3D modeling, I suggest trying BRL-CAD for Linux:

If you do not like BRL-CAD, you could try Freecad instead:

I have no further suggestions to make.

Professional Autocad users most of time using command line.

DraftSight (confirmed from a professional user of Autocad) seem have the same command line set of instructions like Autocad
