Creating a sheet metal offset...

I am trying to find an easier way to produce a sheet metal offset as shown in the photo below.  Something that does not require sketching the offset and using contour flange.

Using Inventor pro 2015.

 

Thanks in advance

Can't tell if there is a curve or anything from your picture ...

 

However a face and 2 flanges should do it ..here is a quick example if there isn't a curve or anything to it...

 

(Not constrain'd ..just a quick example )

For a larger offset, this will work.  My problem is that I need to offset a material thickness or less using an inside radius of .03 (tooling radius). 

What do you think?

In the attached file - drag the red End of Folded marker down step-by-step.

 

You can right click Edit and reduce the radius of the BendRadius.
