Seconded.
I'd suggest taking a trip to your sheet sponsor at some point and talking with them about their standard K-Factor, Bend Radii, Punch Tools, Preferred Materials, Etc. I have a bunch of information about our sponsor written down so that I can reference it later and I also set my Inventor up so that the default sheet metal parameters match the shops. It saves a lot of headache.
