Delcam
A proper cad system but free for home use, one of our toolmakers uses it for their tool design.

Solid Edge is very nice if you can aquire it. Now owned by Seimans PLM along side Unigraphics (NX).

Solidworks is the dogs danglies
You'd be surprised how quickly the sales people at B&Q try and assist you after ignoring you for the past 15 minutes when you try and start a

Have look at Alibre. Other mid-range mainstream packages as SolidWorks, SolidEdge and Inventor are a bit overkill for hobby usage.
