1. On the ribbon, click Sheet Metal tab Create panel Contour Roll . The Contour Roll dialog box displays, you are prompted to select an open profile.
2. In the graphics window, click the edge geometry that you projected into your sketch. The selected geometry highlights, and the Axis selection button becomes active.

5. Click OK to create the 30-degree Contour Roll segment and close the dialog box.

Next, you repeat these steps with a few minor differences to create a similar Contour Roll that sweeps 30 degrees in the opposite direction.
