    I have an assignment where we create a grid on an A3 paper then put that into sketchup. My problem is I'm trying to make a curved fold as seen in the images below.
    Fold Of Model
    Fold Of Model View 2
    And this has to be made on the plane.
    Here's the original grid and the area in which im trying to fold
    SketchUP Plane. Green is fold line, Blue is corner to location
    If any of you have any idea of how I'd do this itd really help me.
    Thanks

      Please edit your post with images attached, rather than links off, which fail...

        You might try Radial Bend which is part of the FredoScale tool set.

          Take a look at Curviloft, it's probably going to be the easiest solution.
