I was very interested in your Sheet Metal experience. Does your team have any material you can share, such as design guidelines, library of parts you have made, or training material? Our team has access to our own "manual" sheet metal equipment, but I would like to know your views on what you can do with CNC vs manual shop.

Sent you a PM, if there's enough general interest I could get my team to put together a whitepaper on good sheet metal practice. A thread necro with a title like this is a dangerous thing...
