    Inventor Sheet Metal Cuts

    I hope i understood u correctly. This is how i would do it : 1. Make a workplane trough axis of cone 2. Design in this workplane a sketch with size of ur cut 3. Revolve sketch with cut on and choose an angle In that way u have a cut with straight edges. Dont know how ur flat pattern will...

    I need to design a tube 16" in which following materials will be transported : Aluminium blocks, wooden blocks, sand. There is limited space to place the tube so i need the minimum angle under which the tube has to be placed. Therefor i need the friction angles for those materials. The...
