Sheet Metal



Hey, this is the 10th update on my SolidWorks blog

This Week was all about creating a box for the Lego man.

Creating a cardboard box for the Lego man to be presented in was a fairly simple process. It started off with a sketch of how the box would look like from the top, this sketch was then converted in to sheet metal.
Edge flanges were added to the side of the box to create tabs. Half of the box was complete and it just needed to be mirrored (when mirroring with sheet metal you cannot pick a plane to copy around).





After this an insert was created in the same way, this is for presenting the Lego man.



Till next time,
Deanna (design student)
