Assembly
The assembly interface allows a group of different bent and straight parts to be assembled together. Parts created in the single part designers (XYZ, Custom 3D, Sketch 2D, etc.) can be brought into assembly and parts within assembly can be transferred to single part designers. Parts can also be cut and the wrappers for these cuts can be printed out here.
To open a new assembly design:
1.) Go to the File menu, select New Assembly.
2.) Click the New Assembly icon at the top of the window.

3.) Select the Assembly option from the Task Menu that appears when the software starts up, when all designs are closed, or through the view menu.
When a new assembly window is open, there will be a menu area located above the tabbed section and display frame.

Bent

In the Number of Bends window that appears, enter the number of bends that the part will have and click the OK button. To create the part, you must select the start point and the location of each bend, and the end point of the part. You cannot create a bend that is 180° or more by using the Bent Part tool. In order to create such a bend, you would need to create two separate parts.
