Your first cut
Two minutes, start to finish: open a model, repair it, reduce it so cuts are quick, cut it with the Straight line and Plane cut tools, and export the keyed parts.

Reduce for cutting only lightens the working copy. When you save or export, the parts are cut again from the full-detail model, so nothing is lost.
Next: Band and Rope cuts, for putting the seam in a fold or along a panel line.
