Sheet metal features determines the thickness and bend radius.12 Gauge Steel is used for this model. This is a Sheet metal part symmetric with respect to the Right Plane (minus the Large Cutout). Sheet metal features are used so that the part can be flattened out to create a flat pattern.

This feature distinguishes that this is sheet metal part. It specifies the bend radius, wall thickness and K factor. Sheet metal features are used so that the part can be flattened out to create a flat pattern. A symmetric cut will help mirror the body downstream in the model creation. It is important to make sure the model can be flattened out. Do so by periodically checking the flat pattern, especially after adding Edge and Miter Flanges.

Sheet metal features are used so that the part can be flattened out to create a flat pattern. A closed corner adds material to the end of the edge flange. The hem is closed using the “Bend Outside” option. A 90 Degree Edge Flange is created using the "Material Inside" option. The Break Corner feature removes all sharp corners. The hem is closed using the “Bend Outside” option. Make sure the model can be flattened out; periodically check the flat pattern especially when adding Edge and Miter Flanges.

With this part you will learn how to use the Base Flange feature. This adds all Sheet Metal features and functions in one step. You are able to edit material thickness, material direction, extrude type, bend radius, bend allowance, auto relief, and the ability to use gauge tables.

There are 19 components total, 11 uniques parts, and radio knob has two configurations. This assembly consists of 19 components (11 unique) including the case which is a multi-body solid that consist of all the external wood pieces. The dial turns and the AM dial numbers show inside the escutcheon. There is an limit angle mate that restricts the tuner to only rotate 175 degrees. The radio knob has two configurations used in the assembly where the middle knob is slightly smaller than the three outside one. Some simplified versions of the tubes and condensor are included to show patterning in an assembly. Under Linear Component Pattern dropdown, "Feature Driven Component Pattern" was selected to quickly re-use the sheetmetal part's hole and tabs patterns to place the Vacuum Tubes and Capacitors.
