Sheet Metal Contour Flange Miter Corner

gsherwin74 — Mon, 01 Jan 2018 15:12:55 GMT

I have custom contour flange that follows around a rectangle box. Half of the contour miters correctly but the outside half of it does not close. When shown in exact flat view, the bad spot in question comes out as a straight angle cut, not the curve that it actually takes. This part is made out of foam sheeting and I will be gluing the mitered corners together.

I'm having a similar problem with a rolled edge around the top of a box. Was this ever resolved?

Thanks for getting back to me on an old thread. I've attached my .f3d file for your review.The top corners are where I'm seeing the offending gaps.

Thank you for your help.
