            About Sheet Metal Bender inside 2017 I have not the Window's parameters
            but open trying Internet site and an offer temp windows save!
            How resolve that and have you the same ?
            Maybe because plugin is not certified ?...

            Plugin itself works with default regulates!

                      I get this when trying in 2017. I doubt it is the fault of the extension but probably something weird with my setup.

                        I have the same as Jim! ( 2017) : works fine in 2016!
                        It's surrely about the Open window's parameters!
                        We can't see it!
                        Certified plugin ?
                        Maybe it's about IE 11 ?...but I don't success to find what I must do! 😲

                        The plugin works fine with default parameters!

                          I also posted the issue on the official forum. The more eye the better.

                          I took a few minutes this morning to make it work with 2017 because I was curious. I will finish it this afternoon and send it to Sam if he is interested or unless he beats me to it.

                              Unfortunately, Sam has removed all his plugins for download because of bogus copyright problems he had with another plugin (Floor Generator-search the forum).

                              Other than individual user copies, there are no other remaining (legitimate) download sites for his plugins.

                                  It's not difficult to model sheet metal parts with native tools. If I really felt I needed to use an extension for it, I would use Radial Bending in FredoScale.

                                  You could also model the sheet metal as a single surface and then use Fredo6's Joint Push/Pull to give it thickness.

                                      Thanks guys, really appreciate it. The fredo scale radial bend does the trick.
