    I am designing a plow for a locomotive. Similar geometry to a snow
    plow on a truck. I need to make a cut out for an access door on the
    bend of the upper portion of the plow. I have tried a few things-
    (unfold, cut, and then try to fold) gets an error saying some features
    cannot be folded. I would like to make the cut on the flat
    pattern(layout). Any advice?


    Thanks,
    Eric

    I figured it out.....I had an extruded-cut through the lofted bend in
    the folded state. Since that cut was there it gave an error for a cut
    in the unfolded state.
