adding filleted corners to an aluminum plate 2

[windell]

I'm trying to sketch an L bracket that is made out of a thin piece of aluminum plate (~1/16th in). It has only one bend and one each face on either sides of the bend has holes in them. The corners of the L bracket have fillets to round off the corners.

I was just trying the sheetmetal tutorial, however I was unsuccesfull in finding out how to add fillets to the corners. Do any of you have any suggestions?

I'd suggest using the fillet tool.

Also try the sheet metal commands.

If you can't figure it out - zip and attach what you have so far.

Apart from the obvious Fillet tool which Jeff suggested, there is a Corners icon in the Sheet Metal toolbar. The corners icon has an option for Break-Corner/Corner-Trim.
