Hi All,

Got a problem.  I have an RHS beam that I cut a 'V' shape into the bottom not up to the inside of the top face, and then bring the sides together.

To do this most effectively I bend both sides.  This puts them both at an angle to the horizontal plane.  Is there an easy way to get one of the side parallel to the horizontal again.  I've tried using the Orbital tool but this is a pain.

Best Rgds,
Dave R.
