Sheet Metal

I am trying to make a sheet metal part where there is a flange over another flange, and there is a chamfer. (I need to keep the bend relief the same) Here is the link to the document.…

I am trying to add a sheetMetalTab to a custom feature but 

I'm looking for the best practices to make a sheet metal part like this: Here is my document that creates the part in a less-than-satisfying way: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/c9b1947c91de47696bc70390/w/d4bd0e8f4b3552a78bf7c120/e/34bb678ad7e318efe9ff8cbe?renderMode=0&uiState=6449297d8d70874f3a187292 I think the…

Hello, It would be cool to export all of the sheet metal drawings with one mouse click.

Sometimes I cannot select the end of a bend rad in a sheet metal part to use in a move face. Below, you see I want to move the two faces together but the move face is only allowing the selection of the end flange face. Sometimes though, I can select the bend rad end face and have it also move with the other selection. I am…

I was looking for some examples of designs for precise sheet metal bend lines and found a patent with a series of interesting slotted bend line designs. According to Google the patent is expired since 17-8-2020 and the designs can be used free. It looks like something that could be an useful FS. I just started using…

I have a sheet metal part where I want to give a dimension from the face of the first flange to be bent to the next bend line. Is there an easy wat to show a part with only certain bends having been made? Please see bellow…

I haven't worked in sheet metal before, so this is probably easy, but I'm getting stuck. I want to create a rounded box from sheet metal with locked corner seams between the corners of the box and the flat parts. I'd also like to create holes to bolt and secure them together. Basically, I want 4 flat pieces with hemmed…

If you attach a flange of 20mm length, measured from the radius to the outer edge, at a 45 degree angle (pointed) to a sheet metal model. How are you doing? I would like that this flange has 20mm, if I measure it it is always much shorter. Will link to an example.…

Hello everyone, how can I achieve that face1 is planar with face2 without the cornerfreecut shown in the second picture? I´ve tried a couple of methods yet but none of them work like it should work...…

In this example: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/957561517fb0dc9252f6f1f2/w/a7dbf37b75d2e1888db006ff/e/5a8176a063a390144cd3cdd5 I'm wanting to convert the chamfered shape to sheet metal. One of the surfaces is curved. I can chamfer this curved surface with the adjoining surface and achieve the solid I want. Now, when I…
