Where to Get Fusion

This address may change, and it may be best to do a Google search. But for now, go to the Fusion 360 Site and download a free Trial. Once you have your free trial, in a few days, you can convert it for use for more than 30 days by following these steps:

1. Open Fusion 360.
2. Click on the countdown timer in the upper right.
3. Convert from a trial to a enthusiast user. This allows you to use Fusion 360 indefinitely as long as you follow the restrictions in the description.
