    I have tried both starting with sheetmetal and flanges, and also this shell. I'm sure I'm missing something simple. See CF thanks

    Not sure what the problem is I opened your file and
    you already have a flat pattern  that works? Am I missing
    somthing?

    IV's flat pattern of this is not correct, it shows
    a flattened cone but has lost the flat tabs?

    thanks for looking, I don't see any compound curves. I also tried fileting the corners B4 shelling, but that didn't help.

    I think Autodesk need to look at this stuff, flat
    pattern is a black art in IV and seems a long way to go.

    I built one lofting between polygons. Since all of the sides are flat, there
    isn't any distortion during the loft. I posted it to customer files.
