I haven't used openscax, but have had mixed results with PyCAM. For CAD I've been using SolveSpace with nice results. It's a little limited (no helical sweeps and can't import geometry) but I is the only stable open source parametric tool I've found. It can also export G-code, but you still need to put a rapper around it.
