Flange issue

Hi

I was watching this tutorial:

At approximately the 8:20 mark, he used the Flange command. I did the same, but the model generated this odd recess, which you can see highlighted in red in the screenshot below.

I didn't understand how to fix it.

here is the link to my project:

There was an error displaying this embed.

Could you please help figure it out and fix it? Thanks

    Check your relief type in your first sheet metal feature. Looks like it is set to "obround". If you set it to "tear", it won't create that relief cut.

    I also have a long and rambly video about that part that might have a few interesting nuggets in it…

    Ok, I fixed it by modifying the Bend relief option in "Tear"
