If I jump over to the sheet metal tool bar, I'm gonna go ahead and choose this base flange tab tool. And let's go ahead and spin that around so we can see what's happening here. Now, as far as the amount or the length of this, type in 50 for the depth. And then over here, as far as your thickness, I'm gonna change this to five millimeters. So you can really see what's going on. And I notice here the material is on the inside of the shape. Right, it starts here at the origin, it comes up here, it's on the inside. I also have the option of flipping that over so it's on the outside. So, if I were to do that, notice, this dimension of 100, would not include the thickness of material.
