How to convert these parts to lofted bends / sheet metal?

tatu_määttätatu_määttä Member Posts: 2 EDU
I made this model previously in Solidworks using 3D sketches and sheet metal tools and I'm now trying to replicate the part in Onshape. But since Onshape doesn't have 3D-sketching, I seem to cannot convert the highlighted parts in the file into sheet metal objects like I can in Solidworks so I would be able to e.g. make flat pattern drawings. Does Onshape support lofted bends yet or am I just approaching this wrong?

    Onshape supports flat-face and rolled sheet metal (like pipes), but not splines like in your example.
