I’ve used sketchup in the past, and it works great, but for more recent projects I’ve moved over to blender.

I don’t go into crazy details for projects, so mainly I just need real world measurements and units, and the ability for my wife to be able to visualize the project as a whole. She usually designs everything and I just make it work.

I use the free version of Todoist. I don’t know what features google tasks all as now, but the big reason I switched from Tasks to Todoist was

1. Being able to share lists - Super helpful for things like shopping lists
2. Integration with things like Alexa - Going through the pantry and adding things to the shopping list with just my voice, or being able to add something to the shopping list just by saying it when it runs out is kind of like magic.
3. Easy natural language recurring tasks

I can’t live without todoist personally. I started with Google tasks.
