How to draw this feature?

    Hello,
    this is a rather simple thing to manufacture, but I don't kow how to
    draw it in SW: imagine you mill a slot down the center of a pipe, and
    then you stop and turn the work around its axis by an angle. You end up
    with two L-shaped slots opposite each other.

    I've managed to do it by first making the slot as a linear cutout, then
    I added another feature as a rotary cut and rounded out the edges. This
    isn't very elegant, and it also doesn't "naturally" give me the right
    angle for the turning cut.

    Any ideas? I'm sure this is very simple.
