You can't just run any old code on any machine, you'd have to say what cutter you want to use, what rpm your machine can run and what controller your machine has.
Speed and cutter must be specified in CAM to generate the moves, the right Post Processor for your machine controller must be selected to generate the correct "flavour" of G-Code for your machine.

I think you need to do a cad course (Online youtube is cheapest) ASAP there is nothing to this design not dissing Jester I'm sure he'd tell you this is a 2 minute mock up.

How I would do it draw rectangle, extrude, chamfer corners, create sphere, adjust height of sphere until appropriate then subtract from solid (Extruded rectangle), wrap with texture is optional, job done! If you did a cad course you'd learn to make this after the bacon sandwich but before the morning coffee.

Youtube has some good starter vids of Fusion I intend to use them because I draw in turbocad at moment.
