sheet metal part

I don't use sheet metal environment often so am requiring some advice and help.

 

I would most likely make these as 2 separate parts and then assemble BUT could this shape be made with Sheet Metal as a single part?

There would be more folds i presume then how i created

 

I have attached a 2015 example of what i was looking to make

 

Cheers

Hi!

 

In my opinion is easier to produce this in two parts.

One part the "arc part" and the face you have in the model as a second part (welded to the first part at final.)

 

As a single part, you will not achieve the flat pattern.

I would make 2 pieces ...

 

The top piece would need to be welded on ... you can't roll/fold this as it is
