Hello,
Is it possible to convert of simple formed piece of steel round stock into sheet metal so that a flat pattern can be generated? For example, I have a simple piece of 3/8" round bar that I have formed at 90 degrees. How could this be converted to sheet metal, maybe not even possible? I didn't use the structural member profile as I didn't see one available for solid round bar. I used the Swept Boss Base. Any suggestions? I've attached the .sldprt as well as snipped image on screen. Thanks!
