Flat pattern Cone showing holes

[FProcp]

I want to create a flat pattern of a cone that has holes drilled in it.

I want to lay all the holes out in the flat pattern as that's how they will be made with the plate cutting equipment.

How can I do this and then see the holes in the folded model?

Hi!

you can do this:

Create the cone first, then you use the "unfold" tool to Flat the part. (Unfold, NOT the same as Flat Pattern)

Do the holes you need, use "Cut", "Pattern", etc

Finally  use "refold" tool to have again the part folded.
