I've had to dust off my sheet metal skills and have a need to roll a 1/4" sheet that has a series of 'grooves'. It seems like I've done this before but my mind must be going. Any suggestions as to how I can show this in my flat? -Dan

Well, without spending more time on this... I realize you can cut 'thru' a bend in sheet metal but can not cut to a 'depth'. I'm not sure if the form tool result would be what I am looking for in the formed state (milled grooves). I went with configurations to get what I want for a drawing. I may have to revisit this when I have more time. Happy Holidays to all!!!
Sheet metal parts in Solidworks can only handle material that is one continues thickness.
