Where is Netfabb?

Ok, so I downloaded and installed NetfabbForFusion-win64.msi but I can't for the life of me figure out how to even open it, let alone use it.

 

First of all, many, many of your online tutorials are not very helpful since, as I understand it, there was a major UI change to Fusion 360 recently. What's worse is that the Readme included in the NetfabbForFusion.bundle\Contents\docs folder follows the old UI with which I have zero experience. Some lucky Googling let me know that "Design" is the new "Model", but this instruction from the Readme (dated 9/9/19) has me stumped:

 

2. In Model mode, click on the Make button on the ribbon. Be sure to click on the pulldown menu at the bottom of the button, which reveals the pulldown menu. Select the Netfabb for Fusion 360 add-in. This will open the Netfabb for Fusion 360 window within Fusion.

 

What and where is the new "Make button"? Where is this pulldown menu? Where is the Netfabb add-in? How do I open a model in Netfabb???

 

I get that this is free software, and I am very thankful that is the case, but all of this is needlessly complicated for new users such as myself. Thank you in advance.

Make Button is in the Tools section.

 

No guarantees as to if it installed.

Found it, thanks. However you are correct, it does not appear to be installed. Is there a solution to this, or am I wasting my time trying to get this software to work? I have uninstalled and reinstalled Netfabb, and rebooted my PC...

 

Thanks again.

 

*edit

 

Nevermind, I was not aware it is no longer freeware. Thanks anyway, I'm going to mark this as solved.
