I used Generic 3D, Rhino3D for 6 years designing machinery, Solid Edge for 7 years designing machinery, and now use SolidWorks. For models used on a 3D printer you'd be hard pressed to find a better tool than Rhino. You get 25 uses for free before you decide whether to buy it. Remember though that the P in PC stands for personal. Software is very personal, it may have great capabilities and you may hate it. I use AutoCAD nearly every day, and hate it every day, but it's personal.

Personally I use and highly prefer ZBrush, but I recommend Sculptris since it's a pretty solid package and it's free!

My personal favorites:
As for the free, I really like K-3D, LeoCAD and Wings 3D
When it comes to more advance stuff, I've found myself using Alibre.

I tried sketchup, but there were too many problems with actually trying to print the files.
I switched to OpenSCAD and I love the results. It is not good for organic shapes though. A great CAD if you are a C programmer.

I've been using Autodesk Maya (free student version) and while there is a bit of a learning curve, I found I was a lot more comfortable after a few tutorials~
