I'm trying to build a pyramid shaped cap that I will eventually put a
hole in to join to a tube. When I go to make the 3rd bend, I get the
error "invalid bending area" which I assume is associated with the weird
angles at the tip of the pyramid. Anyone know how to make this work?
The goal is to be able to give the shop a flat pattern that is at least
close to what I want without them having to weld 4 panels together.
The part needs to look something like the bottom image. This was made
with 4 pieces and is close, but not really what I wanted.
Thanx.
Tony
