sheet metal angled edge through flange
sheet metal angled edge through flange
(OP)
ok, its alot easier to just post the parts then trying to explan what im doing. the angled cut needs to sit flat on another piece of sheet metal at a 90 deg angle (on the faces) ive done it once before with some really interesting angles, but i cant get it to work again, so ill post the successful part too.

1. Make the part long, extending beyond the cut
2. Make a cut on each flange, cutting away material almost up to the bend
3. Unbend
4. Cut a nice neat transition through the bend
5. Bend back
As NomLaser said, normal cuts can yield ugly results.
