Jog
The Jog tool adds material to
a sheet metal part by creating two bends from a sketched line.
Some additional items to note about the Jog tool:
The sketch must contain only one line.
The line does not need to be horizontal or vertical.
The bend line does not have to be the exact length
of the faces you are bending.
To create a jog feature on a sheet metal part:
Sketch a line on the face of a sheet metal part
where you want to create the jog. Alternatively, you can select the Jog
feature before you create a sketch (but after you select a plane). When
you select the Jog feature, a sketch opens on the plane.
Click Jog
on the Sheet Metal toolbar, or click Insert,
Sheet Metal, Jog.
