Help with modeling a part.

Help with modeling a part.

(OP)
Can you help a guy out please. What would be the best way to model this part. I guess I have an idea of how to start modeling it but it doesn't work out for me.

It's .024 thick 304SS. Any help is greatly appreciated.

RE: Help with modeling a part.

(OP)
Let me clarify a little bit of where my problem is. The angles are what's messing me up, that's my main problem in modeling this part.

RE: Help with modeling a part.

The little angles at the side, or the larger one at the bottom?

RE: Help with modeling a part.

(OP)
All of them actually. I'm stumped as to how I should begin my model and how to add the angled parts. Any help is greatly appreciated.

RE: Help with modeling a part.

See Attached Part...
Obviously everyone has their own opinions on how they would start.  For this type of part I would create the overall size and cut away material were needed, then add the (2) 90° bend edge flanges.  From there you can add your holes etc...  I had a hard time reading your dimensions but you can get the basic idea from my part...

Hopefully this Helps...
