I am relatively new to Fusion 360 and I seem to be having a hard time distinguishing between bodies and components. I have created a part that I need to be able to pull off individual components (if this is right vernacular) and create flat patterns for them to be burned out on a plasma table. The part is a radiused stainless steel pan. There will be two rolled pieces along the throat and heel of the part as well as two end caps that will be welded. I just need to be able to create flat patterns for the 5 bodies (or components) in this design.
I have tried right-clicking on the bodies and "converting to sheet-metal" and this message pops up:
Error: Can't calculate body thickness. Select the base face of a valid Sheet Metal body (typically a wide, flat area). But when I go to select the object I want, it won't let me.
I can attach the drawing, so it will make it easier for someone to be able to help out.
Hopefully someone will be able to help me with this.
