Autodesk Inventor - Sheet Metal Skeleton Manifold

[@gebbe]

Hi James, Thanx for your comment, I use them as Sheet Metal parts, because I wanted to show skeleton modeling with surfaces and sheet metal parts. Now I can create flat patterns of the parts that's all. I agree width you that for these diameters there are better methods for actual production. I also would like to see multibodies in the sheet metal environment, that would be a great improvement. We will see, maybe one day.......

I really like that way of modelling but my question is why did you make them sheet metal parts and use the rip command? I'm unfamiliar with the method of manufacturing you would use to produce the individual parts other than using tubing and cutting the appropriate copes on the ends. My frustration with sheet metal parts right now is the inability to create multibody parts. There have been many times I could benefit from modeling with sheet metal tools while using skeletal modeling.
