create own 3D models with opening

Hello,
I am trying to get an idea of how to create my own 3D models that can be opened.

Is it useful to use a free CAD like:
  1. https://www.tinkercad.com/
  2. https://figuro.io/
  3. https://www.selfcad.com/
  4. https://app.sketchup.com/
    [/list=1]
    Or better do everything in SH3 (with the help of Furniture Library Editor)?
    I found
    1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGfLfk97eR8
    2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovsQjD9Fwms&t=177s
    3. [/list=1]
      The first is quite clear but the second does not tell me how to modify a 3D model, I'm a bit lost here...

      As far as I understood you need an OBJ file, where you can edit the details in regard to an opening.
      I skimmed the following threads
      1. http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/foru ... hread,2006
      2. http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/foru ... 4_offset,8
      3. http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/foru ... 962DBCDA1F
      4. http://www.sweethome3d.com/support/foru ... 962DBCDA1F
        [/list=1]

        thx for giving me some guidance
        stefan
