Slide Slot Workaround
Slide Slot Workaround
(OP)
Boy, I soent a good deal of time today trying & failing to model what should be quite simple. After all, it's a very common feature in sheet metal parts. Please see linked image:

I tried many times to model these slots with bends & eventually resorted to using forming tools. Even this was pretty touchy & took some trial & error.
Does anyone know of a 'proper' way to model this feature? How can it be done quickly & easily?
Thanks for any advice!

Jianju ... Why "eventually resorted to using forming tools"? The Bridge Lance would have been my very first choice.
