I walk you through the steps of uploading your cut list and nesting information, including kerf, trim, and stock lengths. Additionally, I demonstrate how to perform scenario comparisons to evaluate different vendor prices and cutting methods. By the end, you&apos;ll see how to generate a nesting report that includes cut diagrams and material summaries. I encourage you to try uploading your own cut lists and configurations to maximize your savings.</description></oembed>
