I'm here watching more Onshape tutorials. I am addicted to learning Onshape. Thanks for making this tutorial.

[@thomasa88]

Where are the questions and answers at the end? The video cuts off before.

[@OnshapeInc]

Sorry, looks like they got cut from this version. This content is old anyway so a lot of that would be out of date...look out for more content coming soon.

how to make a flange on circular hole? like the one in Creo. Another thing is form on sheetmatal..Newbie here

[@OnshapeInc]

A flange on a circular hold is usually done with a forming tool. Those are currently a limitation, but see how these guys make similar features: forum.onshape.com/discussion/9353/formed-sheet-metal-tools forum.onshape.com/discussion/5900/forming-tools-for-sheet-metal

[@johnmcclary754]

why did onshape decide to not allow any solid part tools to work with sheet metal until you make it "finished" ? such as fillets; patterns, extrude.. etc.. many of the best multi-part studio features are off-limits for sheet metal. i havent drawn a sheet metal part yet that hasn't had at least 1 fillet as part of the flat pattern. finsihing a sheet metal part means additional features will not show up in the flat pattern. OR am i doing it wrong?

[@ethanrejto9976]

I've seen this asked before, lots of features work like extrude and pattern. I know fillet doesn't yet but I know they have every intention of adding it they just didn't want to delay releasing sheet metal till it was ready.

Hey John, I would imagine you found the answer to this by now, but let us know if you have other follow ups.

[@johnmcclary754]

@@OnshapeInc yes, to follow-up, most of the solid moding solutions are also available for sheetmetal use. It has come a long way since this video
