I’m learning @SolidWorks at @NextFab and I just redrew an OpenSCAD design of my towel rod holder. The SolidWorks part uses all the same global variables. I tweaked the values slightly.
@Chris_Thompson1 I see that the next Philadelphia 3D printer workshop Meetup is at NextFab Studio
You could use a $fn = 180 in your OpenSCAD design.
Does SolidWorks sell something in a price-range for us hobbyists ?
I’m not sure about that. I think AutoDesk is doing that. You could join NextFab or something like it to get access.
@Henner_Zeller A one-year educational license of SolidWorks can be purchased for $180, but you have to give proof you’re a student. Otherwise, it starts off at about $4,000.
@Chris_Thompson1 The good thing with a “true” CAD program is you can add fillets to your model without jumping through hoops. 
Dassault systems has never been much into hobbyist / educational markets… Autodesk on the other hand has quite a number of CAD type products ranging from free hobby software (like A123D) up through the real heavy hitters like Inventor, Maya, and 3DSMax. Almost all of their software is available 100% free to students as well. (No, I’m not an Autodesk spokesperson, I just happen to really like their products and their awesome support of DIY, like when they purchased Instructables and did nothing but make it more open, and add more awesome contests and such!)
