Technical requirements
To be able to properly follow this chapter, make sure that you have read Chapter 11.
The only special requirement to follow this chapter is to have a working license for the Nesting and Fabrication extension for Fusion 360. It is a subscription piece of software that can be obtained using the following link: https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/nesting-fabrication-extension?term=1-YEAR&tab=subscription.
If you just want to activate a trial license, you can visit the following link and follow the on-screen instructions: https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/extensions/trial-intake.
However, this plugin is not mandatory since the key concepts and ideas are still valuable even without such an expansion.
