Cabinet Design Software for Stand Design?

I would like to design a stand using CAD software. Does anyone know of a good program that is free or otherwise? I really don't want to have to draw this out!

I use sketchup for my furniture design and have been happy with the program. You may have a little work involved with doing the joints from scratch but it's tough to beat the versility of the program for free.
