The free Irfanview can handle DXF files. Probably it can handle F3D as well, but I can't verify that because the file association dialog won't scroll in my copy. (I suspect the problem is this version isn't fully compatible with Windows 11, and I just need to download the latest version.)
If you open the image file and then press Ctrl+P for Print, one of the options in the print dialog is whether to print original size or scale to fit the paper size.
Isn't that all a simple CAD design is? Straight lines? In my tiny amount of cad experience I drew floor plans for an Elementary school for them to print. Other than the few text fields for room numbers, it was all straight lines.
This is 3D and Fusion 360 (F3D) is an attempt by AutoCad to divide the community. That means support for the format, is an uphill struggle for the community. Making a new file format, is like making your own walled garden, which is a popular topic these days.
Normally, you might export to some other format, if it had the same syntactic capabilities. Some history might get lost that way.
And no, I don't know a thing about this format, and had to look it up. The F3D is a ZIP file, so if you have 7ZIP, you can potentially look inside if you want, extract a table or whatever.
CAD is more than straight lines. And working in 3D is going to tax your math class knowledge :-) That's for sure.
If you want to fool around with primitives, you can try the Paint3D program in Windows. The novelty last for about ten minutes. Paint3D cannot assign dimensions to anything, so it's useless for any purpose whatsoever. You can't make an approximation of the OPs table in there. The tools are too hard to use.

From two years ago it was said only Autodesk software opened f3d files.

"No open source application can open .f3d files." Which means only Mac/Windows Autodesk software can work with this format.
The suggestion then was to open free online Autodesk viewers.

Yet a quick search shows reputed open source f3d viewers too.

But what is a Windows "WHL" file that they put near the top for you? Name: f3d-2.3.0-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl Size: 16642339 bytes (15 MiB) SHA256: F5A002390CC7BDC9932F93ECF189FB57DF1CF94AA43B8415AC4038C82DC0F29E
Whatever a "WHL" file is, at the very bottom are Windows ZIP & EXE files. Name: F3D-2.3.0-Windows-x86_64.exe Size: 17520073 bytes (16 MiB) SHA256: EA210AC271371551A521C0310E7EC2F02FAFA4004F8F2DAB6056EB9EDF107EE7
