Hi all
I am facing a problem because I would like to create a sheet metal cylinder but with a helical shaped cut of this cylinder.
I don't see how to go about doing this in sheet metal at all.
Thank you in advance.

Hello
based on the same trick, unfolding a cylinder wound into a helix = parallelogram.
Create the tube with sheet metal + unfolding + parallelogram cutting + re bending function.
Sheet metal functions only.

It is even possible to extend the propeller by several turns.
This allows of course to do the flattening for the cutting on the MEP. Be careful not to overlap faces.
Hello
I imagine that the clearance to be left will depend on the type of soldering that will be used. If it is for machining and if there is welding, of course.
