From FreeCAD Documentation

The unfoldable basic sheet metal objects can be extended:

  1. Use the Extend Face command to enlarge walls.
  2. The Make Wall command will add new flanges or hems to the existing object.
  3. Use the Add Corner Relief command to add or reshape corner reliefs.
  4. The Fold a Wall command will fold a wall at a chosen line, i.e. it will trimm a wall at said line, relocate the cut away side, and rejoin them with a cylindrical connection.
  5. Use the Sketch on Sheet metal command to cut holes into the object starting on a chosen wall and then following the adjoined walls and connections.
  6. The Make Forming in Wall command will stamp a shape into a plate (wall).
After the creation of a WallForming feature the SheetMetal object is no longer unfoldable!
