I like gel pens...they will let you design on institutional toilet paper when in the initial stages of a project. Over time I have used everything from soapstone on the concrete floor to AutoCAD 2012 Inventor Light (which I bought & don't use much more than 10% of it's "features").
As others here have testified, go with your comfort level and use methods as tools rather than the greatest thing since folding money. I've designed complete glass tube forming machines using vellum and templates with the help of a ruler. Cad is super if you are drawing layouts for complicated assembly machines. However
if the power goes away the gel pens and a pocket calculator are your friends.
