Hello,
I am somewhat new to the Sheet Metal side of Solidworks. I have a rolled part in sheet metal that is half of a cylinder. See the part attached. Now I need to make a cut about half way up the part and bend the top of that cut back to make a flange off of the half cylinder. See Example 1 to see what I mean. I made this example with basic extrudes. I think this is tough because there is no flat surface to make a edge flange off of. Any suggestions here would be much appreciated. I know the part can be made, as we have made some already. I just want to make it correctly in Solidworks and be able to generate an accurate flat pattern for dimensioning. Thanks in advanced!
