Re: Left and Right configurations with Sheet Metal
Austin,
While in the part you want to make a bend opposite version of, do the following:
1. Select the face or plane to mirror about.
2. Go to "insert --> mirror part"
This will create a new part that you can save as a new name.
You can add features to this part, but any change you make to the original part will also be made in the new part. Of coarse, with any linked part or feature in SolidWorks, you can break the link at any time.
We do a ton of sheet metal parts and this is how we model our bend opposite parts.
