Frequently Asked Questions

What does the SendCutSend Fusion plugin cost?

The SendCutSend Fusion plugin is 100% free to SendCutSend customers.

A sheet metal body represents a flat piece of material with a uniform thickness in Fusion. Sheet metal bodies use sheet metal rules to control the thickness, bend radii and other manufacturing settings for a particular part.

You can create a sheet metal body using either the Flange tool to convert a sketch to sheet metal, or by converting an existing body to sheet metal. 

The SendCutSend Fusion plugin will automatically recognize any sheet metal bodies.

Please note: you’ll need to set parts up using Fusion’s sheet metal tools even if you plan to order non-metal materials. This ensures parts meet our 3D file guidelines.


The most common reason for this is that your part does not have a uniform thickness.

Check to see if your part has any of the following non-uniform features:

  • Tapered edges
  • Partial depth cuts
  • Tapped holes
  • Countersunk holes


These features will need to be modified for your part to be recognized by the SendCutSend plugin.

  • If you want your part countersunk or tapped, you can create a normal through-hole in Fusion and then add countersinking or tapping after the plugin uploads your part to SendCutSend.
  • SendCutSend does not support other non-uniform features like tapered edges or partial depth cuts.


You can verify your part is a Sheet metal body on the Fusion Browser under the “Bodies” section.

I ran into an issue replacing an old sink and needed a stainless steel spacer. SendCutSend was amazing! Awesome AI Tool to help me design exactly what was needed, round the edges to match my sink and get the order placed! Very reasonable pricing and about a week and a half later, I had my spacer! Will definitely use them again!

What a great company, website is easy as can be, part was machined perfectly, every step of the process was updated VIA text and part was shipped and delivered days ahead of schedule at a price that can't be beat. I work in R&D at a company with 50+ CNC machines and prefer to use these guys because our machines are all running production programs and down time to do one-offs is a hassle. Send Cut Send is a true resource that even well equipped shops can benefit by using them.

Needed some custom panels for my audio build and was running out of ideas so went to their website and used their templates and made the panels i needed to my measurements and a few days later they arrived. They were just how i wanted. Will be using them again in the future.

First time experience with SCS and they deliver excellence. Sent over dxf file of vintage carburator spacer suited for my 1947 Studebaker M15A. Selected the 1/2" G10 fiberglas isolator and pressed go. Rapid service and dispatch. Got the final product delivered to Norway and same day installed with perfect results. Very happy customer!
