For those using 3D printers like me, one design program to consider is Fusion 360, a solution available for free to individual hobby developers.

Like the link above, I had introduced this once on my blog as well. Since the personal license for hobby use is limited to non-commercial use by license terms, one must use a license that allows commercial use if they wish to utilize the modeling data commercially.

However, this license is... quite expensive.

That's 555,223 KRW per user per year.. shivering..

So, there was a license for small startups like me.. originally, it was provided for free to users who met certain qualifications.

So I decided to apply last year in the second half and enjoy the Startup License!! But...

I used it for free for about a month. Thank you, Autodesk

Just last year, in the second half, I received a notice that the free benefit would suddenly disappear.

So, I had no choice but to. .I guess I have to use the free features.. But I want to try using paid features by utilizing the printer... After thinking about it for a while..

Noticing that a free benefit was ending, I quickly paid to take advantage of an offer allowing use for 3 years at a price of about 190,000 KRW.

You can apply via the link below.

However, after paying immediately, I realized...

There's an educational license? And, thinking about it, I'm registered as a university instructor, so I was eligible for a license..?

I'm having a midlife crisis.

I need to check if the educational license has restrictions, but if not, I think I need to cancel the payment..
