Can't even take a short break from 3D designing stuff. Glad I'm switching over to FreeCAD. All I wanted was to grab some dimensions from an old model.

FreeCAD has an OpenSCAD plugin. Personally, I'd stick with FreeCAD regardless of workflow since you can do both in it. It has its quirks, but once you get used to it, it's great.
