I'm having a look at Free CAD (http://sourceforge.net/projects/free-cad/).
It is "platform independent".
"FreeCAD is an Open Source 3D CAD/CAE program, based on OpenCascade, QT and Python."
While I have no experience at compiling sources --QT or otherwise--,
(is that even necessary?), I'm willing to give it a go,
(as long as it's not too time consuming).
However, before I begin, can anyone here who is knowledgeable on such matters, tell me if I'm getting in over my head AKA wasting my time?
Thanks.

Sorry - but you're in over your head :) From the Opencascade website:
http://www.opencascade.org/getocc/require/ - it needs OpenGL support...
