Step 3) Select the first "PickPoint" of the part. This is one end of the part. The part creation is now tied to the cursor.

Step 4) Select the "PickPoint" for the apex of 1st bend.

Step 5) Select the "PickPoint"s for any additional bends in the part. Pick these in order.

Step 6) Select the "PickPoint" for the end of the part.

Notice how Bend-Tech will update the part with the material and tooling that is selected. The PickPoints for the part features are automatically generated.
