BoardCAD or Shape3d lite for newbie to learn and first project?

Trying to learn cad cam and would like send a design to a cutting machine. The cutting contractor uses Shape3d and AKUshaper. I'm kind of lame on the computor, so far I've been able to get a drawing on the Shape3d lite intro page but havn't even figured out how to get a single line on the BoardCAD intro page. Which program might serve this beginner best? Thanks

I’d pick one with the best help manual and videos.

Which may be Aku.

Shape3d was fairly difficult, I had to print and read the help manual some 70 pages a couple of times before I could start taking

baby steps.

But its your choice.
