In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of creating a circular heat shield in Alibre Design Expert using the Sheet Metal environment. We'll focus on the Bend Only option of the Flange command, demonstrating how to use it twice in a row to make the material form a circle. This technique allows the radius of the formed circle to be collinear with the tab from which the flange originated... Roughly...
