Hello
I need to design some sheet metal parts with sketches for laser cutting (marking, etching...). They can be used for precuts or for manual bending.
I have a sheet metal part with a flange on the four corners of the square (see attached).
Tried three ways:
- I tried to draw a sketch on the unfolded flange and then fold it. It's OK, but I only can make a mirror for the flange, not the sketch.
- The other way was to make the mirror of the flange, unfold and then drew a sketch for all flanges. When folding again all sketched were projected over the face of the first flange.
- Wrap tool doesn't let me to use opened sketched
How do you work in that case?
Thank you in advance.
Regards
