SOLIDWORKS Tutorial - 'Advanced' Sheet Metal

So if I make a custom form tool in SolidWorks, it ends up being the male half of the die. What's the best way to create the female half of the die so I can CNC cut both and use them in my press?

Is is really as easy as offsetting the surface by the intended thickness of the stock and building the female die out of that offset surface?

Excellent training video! Thankyou

If we want to punch a shape from a rectangular sheet so that it has the least deviation what is the solution ???

Thank you so much!

Good Explanation Sir
🙂

Nope. Pretty much used all of that before. (admittedly I skimmed the video, sure there was something in there for me)

Nice & I really love it ...!
Seeking for more on application oriented Programs...!
