Sheet Metal Drum Cutout

Hello,
I am working on a new way to model sheet metal drums we currently manufacture at my company. The flat patterns are typically cutout on a Trumph machine, then rolled and spot welded along a seam on the ends. The drums also will have a shaped cutout located in the middle of the part. I have attached one drum with the cutout, file 7501_DRUM_TEST.ipt The flat pattern looks perfect, but the "folded" model has edge problems on the interior shaped cutout where the radiuses intersect with straight lines (see model file).

Thanks for any help!

not sure why it's doing that, but if you remove he the joggle bend from the unfold selection the issue is resolved.

Attach the file here of what you created so far.
I would have started a new thread for this new problem.

Another (easier) method.
I didn't bother to fix up the constraints on the first sketch.
