Seeking understanding here. I understand that you need a CAD program to design a part, but then what? It's really not clear to me and I'd like to see a basic tutorial for how to design and then print/cut a part.

If I understand it correctly it goes like this....

Idea
CAD software (Fusion 360, Sketchup, V-Carve, Mach 3/4, etc)
then you export you file to 'g-code' (which is a text file...right?)
then you import that file into ?? something...this is where i'm confused.
That 'something' then...
