In this example, we will show you how to create a simple 12X15 "L" bracket.
NOTE: All XYZ locations are based upon a 0,0,0 global location. Which means that each location is referenced to an absolute location. The start point does NOT need to be 0,0,0.
While in the XYZ interface: 1) Zero out the "Start" row to make our start point the center of the locator.

2) In the "Bend 1" row enter "12" for "X", and "0" for both "Y" and "Z". - This will give us 12" from the start of the tube, to the apex of the bend.

3) In the "End" row enter "12" for "X", "15" for "Y", and "0" for "Z". - This will give us 15" from the apex to the end of the tube.
