Not really. I use OpenSCAD for most things and recommend tinkercad for novices.

Also, is Creality Ender 3D printers OK? The reviews I've read say there are OK, even for the price around $200-300 for the low end

Probably are. I primarily use an $1800 MakerGear M2, but I also have a $350 Wanhao I3 and it works fine. Main difference is print speed; the M2 can print at 200mm/s with comparable quality to the I3 at 60mm/s. Basically, the Creality and most other cheapies (including my Wanhao) are Prusa I3 derivatives, and that's not a bad thing.

Thanks.  I've been doing more research and I'll probably start playing around with 3D design first, then maybe have someone else print it.
