So do you think there's a secret password or something? That you'll learn 3D graphics on a spud cannon forum?
I guess the best reply to your problem is "Try harder!".
You can start by going through Rhinos' Help.

Thats good 1 Salad, but you left out the keyway and set screw holes. HeHeHeHaHaHa

I'm at work on a Mac so I haven't tried it out, but google recently bought the company that makes SketchUp and they offer a free version now >link<
I've seen it used alot in computer modding forums for sketching out case-designs.

Although, I'm more of a Maya man myself.
