I think what you want is miter cuts.
And if you take your model which must be made in one piece in mechanical welding I guess and you use the "convert to sheet metal" function, it should do it.

@ Martin via your screnn it fits pil hair in the function of mechanic welding
The TU 4 angle with 45° cut called miter cut
look at the tutorial post you will understand everything
@+
I think you're making this frame so that it's folded.
It is therefore necessary to create a sheet metal base for each part and then add a "normal" material removal
The "problem" is that your sheet metal edges will remain at 90°. it leaves room for the weld bead
Otherwise, draw a stud, then make symmetries

@Gt22, the mechanical welding machine does not unfold;)

@ bart I agree a welded mechanic doesn't unfold
it's not made for what
but for this type of part to be made in one piece it's the walkthrough
In addition, it's not very complicated to create and make a sheet metal wing and unfold it
well I'm going out ;-)

@gt22 The tutorial doesn't match, and I can't seem to insert plaice.
@ vspemens Yes for your second image it's completely that.
Attached is my piece so that you can see how I proceeded after you to adapt it for your case.

They are stubborn with their welding mechanic ^^ hahaha
All you have to do is make a bent sheet metal angle, make the cuts at 45° and then either repeat the operation or make symmetry

of course since it's welded construction
but even with sheet metal tool you will have multibody
See parts list welded on the VSPEMENS SCRENN
so you have 4 bodies so a multibody piece .................; -)
in welded mechanic you only have one body since the 4 bodies are welded
but if it suits you so do I

For me, it's not mechanic welding.
There is folding, cutting, it is not commercial thread that is being cut.
So start with the folded base sheet metal module.
I make frames like this every day, I never have any problems :^p
When he's talking about a single file, he just doesn't want to do any stitching. He wants to do everything in the same file. Which is not stupid

@Bart: the title of the request is to make a frame in folded sheet metal.
Hello
Wouldn't a stamping with cutting be suitable?
Don't worry about it. :)
Thank you for your answers.
@ vspemens, when I save (or open it) your file is in "HTML", how should I do it?
@ Bart, exactly, thank you:
"When he talks about a single file, he just doesn't want to do any assembly. He wants to do everything in the same file. Which is not stupid"
@ alain. ERP, there is no my request. (Thanks for the site link.)
@gt22, the purpose of making it in folded sheet metal is that I can make a dvp of each part
"so you have 4 bodies so a multibody piece"

Don't worry, we don't worry, just let's clear things up...
Weird, I just tried again and it saves correctly. I'll give you the link just in case.
