SketchUp, by Trimble, makes 3D visualization available to the layman. The intuitive drawing interface takes a lot of the frustration out of learning to model as well as making the process very efficient. SketchUp is optimized for modeling objects comprised of a lot of right angles (although it also simplifies angles and arcs). This makes it the ideal tool for woodworking and architectural visualization.
