StackExchange has a policy against asking questions that are "primarily opinion-based" (explained in the [help center](https://3dprinting.stackexchange.com/help/dont-ask)) because they often don't result in very good answers (since everybody will just post a one-liner with their personal favorite CAD tool). Also, **don't answer questions in the comments**, please.

# Designing back plate for Ring Doorbell

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-09-29)

What is a good tool to use to design a back plate for a Ring Doorbell? The shape will essentially be a wedge shape, tilting the doorbell to the side and down a bit. I'll need to iterate over a few prints, so want to be able to tweak it as I go.

I've found TinkerCAD doesn't let me adjust shape sizes, stretching one axis but not the other.
