cylinder (d = 24, h = 12, $fn = 180); // shoulder
hull () { // this command connects the following two shapes with a surface
translate ([0, 0, 12]) cylinder (d = 25, h = 5, $fn = 180); // base section
translate ([0, 0, 70]) sphere (d = 5, $fn = 90); // tip

What happens after a year?Not sure that’s correct. Here is what I’m seeing at https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/personal

OnShape. Runs rings around Fusion360, lacks only the CAM functions, browser based, way fewer bugs. I hope they maintain their license posture (free at 100% functionality as long as you're OK with your files being visible). I dumped F360 last month and exfiltrated all my files...it twice generated toolpaths that would have crashed my machine if I didn't review carefully before cutting. Not going back even if the price is reasonable.
Is this still good if you do not have the Apple Pencil?Shapr3D on iPad is worth a look for CAD.
Are there some good tutorials for newbies/ begginers, that start at the very basic level and build up to more complex work?I'll second OpenSCAD, but then again I'm a programmer by trade so it's second nature to me.
For Rocketry related items, it works great - most things are pretty much cylinders, and aren't very complex. However, if you're not used to reading code (especially reading it bottom to top), it can be a bit difficult to understand at first. And if you're picking up someone else's design who didn't put in any comments, good luck to you.

Been able to get into a workable level at fusion but without the tutorial would not have been able
Not a tutorial, but I've tried to explain what's going on as I develop an OpenSCAD Nike-Ajax model.Are there some good tutorials for newbies/ begginers, that start at the very basic level and build up to more complex work?

Thanks that's a perfect starting point, will endeavour to follow along appreciate you sharing the step by step and that it ends up with a rocketNot a tutorial, but I've tried to explain what's going on as I develop an OpenSCAD Nike-Ajax model.
