Cannot create sheetmetal part that will unfold correctly. Please help.

Hi,

 

I am trying to draw a 3d sheetmetal part from the drawing attached.  I have tried various methods but cannot produce this shape successfully so that I can get a flat pattern.

 

Can someone please have a look at this drawing and suggest a method on how I can achieve this?

I thought I would share what I created. I'm still figuring out when and where I need to apply my 2D sheet metal pattern drafting knowledge and this was one of the times I needed to draw both the "plan" and "elevation" views. It's interesting to see all of the different, yet similar, modeling techniques displayed by the various posters.
