I have tried to use Google Sketchup in the past, with little success, but I
didn't persist as I should, I guess. Don't know if it is in portage, though.

If 2D drawing is enough, OpenOffice / LibreOffice have a vector drawing
program, and Inkscape is just about it.

For a big shot, Blender is a 3D suite, but complex enough to scare a bit.

Good luck
