Using convert to sheet metal is a great way of sharing part files across different CAD systems. However, as shown at 6:19 in your video, you need to be careful when there are holes or cutouts that cross bends. It may be necessary to remove or suppress them in the original part before converting to sheet metal so the bend is not compromised. Then add the hole/cutout in the sheet metal part with an unbend/rebend as appropriate. Is Rip only used to trim corners? Seems like that is the only example ever shown for the option and a chamfer could do the same and be more easily editable.
Another fantastic video Joseph. Thanks. Jimcad
Nice video. Always like learning about sheet metal. I don’t use it often enough to get good with it. Thanks.

Do you have regional pricing?
Prices in the United States are all the same. To do business outside of the US, we have to go through resellers that use their own pricing
