I need to make a knock out feature for sheet metal that as placing it on a sheet metal ipt I can then tell it the size I want the knock out to be, is there a video that explains how to make a knock out like this??

Do you have any experience creating a Punch tool?

Have you made an attempt that you can attach here?

I haven't gone through these - but there might be something useful here -

The video's will help you.. what you want to do is make a IDE file and when you place it ..you'll have an option to set the sizes .. I've made several punches, knock out's etc with IDE's Mike
