Sengna Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Before I answer the question -I do not see ANY dimensions on your sketch? I actually turned off the dim visibility since i know how. sometime they're very annoy. Edited October 10, 2014 by Sengna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 .......why do you suppose I would ask about your dimensions? Turn them back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD Mather Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I will continue on this fishing expedition for information that could have all been revealed by simply attaching the file here. In any case - it might help you reach logical deduction of why it isn't working. Hint: What is your sheet Thickness set to? Hint #2: What is 2*Thickness+Thickness? Hint#3: What is Bendradius?

Sengna Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 Weird, on the sheet metal rule, i want to set to like 10GA SS 25MM* but i don't have to drop down list for me to choose one on the default, how can i import in? The thickness is set to .500mm, where can i find the bend radius? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sengna Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 Interesting, on the sheet metal rule dialog, when i changed to Default_mm and it works. the question i have is that where can i select the 10GA SS 25MM*??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Default Bend Radius value is the same as sheet metal Thickness. The problem in your original post is the bends were therefore too big for this small part - they would have intersected with no logical solution in the real world. Lesson: Dimensions are important. I rarely hide them and only when I have a lot of sketches - never on something this simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
