Cannot bend this Part and not sure why

2023-04-24.pngI am trying to bend this part with these parameters, in order to get the entire piece to form a triangle with rounded edges, that has the pattern on the side. I did not have a problem with the other bends, but I am having trouble with this one and I am not sure why. Please Help!

Can you Attach your file here?

Why not model in finished form rather than bending?

Quite honestly, I am very confident in autoCAD but am just learning Inventor. If there is an easier way to do this I would be happy to hear it. I tried making the base shape and it worked fine, but could not figure out how I would put the design around it once it is already curved.

Before we Wrap the design - can you first check my file (see Attached) for dimensions and make sure that it matches your Design Intent? (wasn't sure if you wanted a Rip, and if so - where)

Hi! The Bend Line has to intersect the body as the ones you selected for the other three Bend Part features.

Many thanks!
