    Create Structural shape from an Sheet metal template

    I want to publish a new Structural Shape family (a specific  C channel). I have good experience based on a crosssection method, but I want to publish starting from a  sheetmetal template, in order to have the benefits of flat paterns for the inserted parts.

     

    Is that possible?

    Does anyone have some experience with this?

    Please give me few basic directions.

     

    Lots of thanks,
