Sheet Metal help needed

I have never done sheet metal in IV so I have modelled these parts the "normal" way. I would be glad if there are any sheet metal guys willing to do this for me and maybe I can learn SM faster by following the correct workflow instead of trying to figure out from the help menu. In case you have to know, these are parts for a model 1913 biplane. I have included the picture of where this is being used. From here, it looks like the top and bottom pieces were made identical then but not anymore after it was assembled. ncabilan Attachment not added (content type not allowed): "TailswivelBrkt.ipt"

Fixed the contour flange that failed on EOP roll-down. I forget to check that all the time ... never think I could have done a forehead slap'r I guess. ~Larry "ncabilan" wrote in message news:4067670c_1@newsprd01... > I have never done sheet metal in IV so I have modelled these parts the > "normal" way.

Try moving the End of Part marker down one feature at a time and you might find that it works. For sure, in the one I posted, it will fail if you move the end of part marker all at once but works if done incrementally.
