Yes, I created the plastic case model in a commercial program called Cobalt (from Ashlar), which I have access to through work. Well, for the next couple of weeks, anyway... I'm changing jobs. I'm going to try out a much cheaper commercial program called Fusion 360 from Autodesk very soon. It's one of those danged cloud-based tools that I loathe on general principal, but it includes the CAM feature that I need for some CNC machining tasks, and it's much cheaper (in the short term, anyway).

For PCB design, I've been using an open-source tool called KiCad. My CoCo cartridge PCBs were done in the commercial version of Eagle, back before I switched to KiCad. They might open in the free version of Eagle, but I haven't tried it.
