Hey, mate! I'm new to Inventor and was looking through some tutorials, but they all were just plain boring and basic, but then I found your channel. Your video are just great, very useful and enjoyable to watch at same time. Keep up the good work, I'm loving it! ;)
Can't reply to your comment as you've disabled it but yea I was thinking about it! Not sure if I have the time to put enough effort into it but I was just playing about with a few ideas yesterday and that part was one of them!
I bent a plate that had geometry at the end, it - (the geomtry and shape) didn't go with the bend, it stayed put floating in thin air even though it was constrained to the end of the plate. The bend tool has limited use. Good video though. Thanks.
+Tibor Molnar Yea the only thing for that is the tube & pipe environment in Inventor Pro, that comes with steel tubing which can have min bend radius input into it. I don't have any tube & pipe tutorials yet but there are plenty other people who have done them so it should be easy to find
Hmmm... there's so much I don't know. I probably don't know what you were clicking because I also don't know what prompted the sniper cross hairs/circle that appeared just before the clicking that showed the slicing views.
That was holding down F4 and the left mouse button to do an orbit, also I think at one point in there I pressed F7 whilst in a sketch to slice the part in half but that wasn't relevant or contributing to anything at that time! But yea hold down F4 and left mouse to orbit.
+TFI CAD Tips ah perfect! The F7 was definitely what caught my eye first but I'm happy to learn both, thanks so much. I'm switching over from autocad and haven't seen the list of shortcuts yet. I spend half my time watching/inspecting people install a roof on a huge casino right now and I'm eager to get home and get those short cuts into my razer naga. Do you have a video of your favorite shortcuts (macros) up yet? Your videos are the best!!
Bend part is straight forward enough. But what about returning it to a flat pattern (like sheet metal) to show the shop where to mark the parts to make the bends?
I'm running into the same issue. The parts are "previewing" exactly the same position with no bend in sight... What I'm having to do is to recreate the part and "bend" to see if I can recreate something that looks... well, similar enough
I saw this years ago, and 2024 finally had something to try it on! It didn't work, but I remembered it was here and was glad of it. I was trying to notch out a bit of RHS and then fold over the notch. It didn't work.
SWEET I CAN APPLY THIS TO A PROJECT THAT I WILL BE DOING IN THE FUTURE!! AND I WAS SRACTCHING MY HEAD HOW TO TACKLE IT. LOL THANK YOU AGAIN YOUR DOING A GREAT JOB
Yea you can't flat pattern unfold this, it isn't a sheet metal module function. Sheet metal has commands that'll do a similar thing to bend part but will then flatten out
So all these years I've been doing the hard way, cheers bloke....BRILLIANT tutorials you make.....keep up the great work there buddy. Cheers, Tony Beal
Hello Sir, is How do I do that on the Fusion 360? Looked for it everywhere and nothing. Is there any easy way to ben a flat plate other than having to sketch the angles and then extrude it? Thanks
i was wondering if inventor could help me with some metal castings i wana make. i want to to calculate the shrinkage and the machining neede with the least effort possible.
mataz farouh Nah sorry Inventor won't calculate shrinkage during casting of metal parts. It has a module for tooling and injection molding of plastic parts but it doesn't do liquid metal

This video was probably done years ago before I started using one on TH-cam, as a trainer you should really use the application functions but I changed that later on
Hey great tutorial! I'm using the 2015 student version of Autodesk Inventor, and the drop down arrow under the modify ribbon doesn't exist at all.... thus leaving me with no access to the bend a part tool, nor move bodies or copy object. Any clue as to whether this is a feature taken out of the student version or if the tools are just hidden? The drop down menus do exist on other tools in the ribbon, just not under modify.....
4473021 Hey, I'm looking at 2015 here now and it's all there! The student version is exactly the same as any other version, it's the same program but you just use a different serial number so you have everything there. Are you definitely in an IPT file? Not an assembly?
TFI CAD Tips I actually figured it out just now. As I only started learning autodesk inventor (and CAD altogether) just earlier today, I did not realize you had to double click the part (I'm guessing it's because I'm working in an assembly) for the drop down menu option to show. Thanks for your kind intentions though, your videos have been really helpful! ^^

Kristaps Ozols Thanks chief! Much appreciated!

Your channel is the first place I run to whenever I find myself stuck while doing a design job. Thanks a million times!
Great job as usual!
so helpful

nope, cant get this to wrk. bend line is an impssible task
Hello, great video. Have an issue. Is there possibility to realistic bend a rectangular tube with real radius?
+Tibor Molnar Yea the only thing for that is the tube & pipe environment in Inventor Pro, that comes with steel tubing which can have min bend radius input into it. I don't have any tube & pipe tutorials yet but there are plenty other people who have done them so it should be easy to find
What were you clicking from 2:11 to 2:15? Just arrows?
Hmmm... there's so much I don't know. I probably don't know what you were clicking because I also don't know what prompted the sniper cross hairs/circle that appeared just before the clicking that showed the slicing views.

You're funny af

Yes mate, I wot
Thanks for the videos man, Never thought I'd find any inventor tutorials that I actually enjoy watching.
William Anderson Thanks! Too many tutorial sites are people just doing stuff, with no talking, I've no idea what they think people can get from that!
'Dislike if your a Knob-head'... Hahahahaha... :)
What a bloody star, I was just wondering how I as going to do this, thanks

It is very old command. From "Designer" or MDT program. When I explaind why I prefer Inventor and.not SW, I told: "We can bend everything!"
Bend command is the main functionality in a Sheet Metal env., should be self evident by now.
Nice tutorial! But, i'm wondering if it's possible to make the tube flat pattern?... This is it was nice... :)
Thanks,
Hello, great video.
What about returning it to a flat pattern for Docu.?
Always really good videos! Thanks
Thanks. learned a bit again today!
Question: How do you make an unfolded version afterwards. I need a flat pattern view for my drawing.
Yea you can't flat pattern unfold this, it isn't a sheet metal module function. Sheet metal has commands that'll do a similar thing to bend part but will then flatten out
Thanks for the videos.
Can you help me with this? How do I bend a part by torsion?
So all these years I've been doing the hard way, cheers bloke....BRILLIANT tutorials you make.....keep up the great work there buddy. Cheers, Tony Beal
"Press 'dislike' if you're a knob-head!" Brilliant! :)

Hi, thanks for share, I would like to learn, how did you bend the second part you showed. Best Regards
How to bend 360 degree in Inventor? thanks for sharing.
Very informative. This will help me finish a project I am working on for one of my professors at school. Thank you so much!
I really like how you explain the procedures. Very simple and straight forward. Hope you will continue this great work.
This saved me a few hours of work! Keep up the good work your channel is very helpfull.
why wouldn't my modify ribbon be available to select
Stop cracking jokes I laugh to hard and have to rewind.
7 years old and still relevant. Thanks!
Are you doing the linus tech tips headphone holder thing?
is there Twist command? I need to model twisted links.
can you make a video about the section feature in inventor ..
i can´t find this option in fusion 360, do you know how to do it in fusion?
Unbelievably helpful. Thanks alot.
That was brilliant! Cheers :-)
you fookin dansa. spot on tut!
good video, mr. mate. regards
Thanks a lot keep it up!
Excellent tutorial! :)

hi, please, is it possible bending .iam part??
An iam and part are different things, but no you can't bend an assembly if that's what you mean
thank you!
You talk too much
