Hi @Anonymous,

thanks for posting!

Check if your design history is switched on first. Then, you can find sheet metal within the Design workspace:

Sheet Metal Flange Fusion 360

Let me know if that helps. Thanks!

Best regards,

Hi @Anonymous,

thanks for the screencast!

This is due to the fact that you are selecting an edge of a solid body (and not a sheet metal body).

You can create a flange from a sketch or starting with an edge of another flange.

I hope this helps!

Best regards,

The first feature needs to be a flange not an extrusion. Just because you're in the sheet metal tab it doesn't make the part a sheet metal part, the extrude feature is the same as in the model workspace.

Try just drawing a single line then select the flange tool and extrude. Best practice would be to switch to the sheet metal tab, create a sheet metal component and select the material

then create your first sketch and create the first flange.
