While Tinkercad is great for designing basic 3D models it sometimes lacks in editing models that you already have. The designing workspace is well laid out with important tools in easy reach, things, like making holes and moving workplanes, become so important you need them right at the top all the time. It was the first program I used to make models and the primary colors stand out to me and make learning a little more fun.

To combat this Tinkercad created generators that allows you to search for, and use, custom coded shapes that others have made. While there is a lot that can be done with primitives - primitives are simple shapes, squares and spheres and the like - there is a limit to the complexity of the shape you can create without being able to sculpt or edit specific parts. Being a browser-based program, Tinkercad has some limitations to what it can do compared to a fully downloaded program.
