I'm trying to make a column out of metal - I can get the idea of it shown using loft and cuts, but I can't convert it to sheet metal in order to get the flat layout for fabrication. I tried using tangent arcs to trace over the shapes but it doesn't give me the right shape. Any idea how to get this to work as a sheet metal part? Ultimately I need to be able to create a flat pattern for each 'panel' in this column.
