Freehand dimensioned fabrication sketch showing a panel layout, profile view, and bend angles with measurements.

AI caption · Photo 803 of 1134

This is a hand-drawn pencil/pen sketch on lined notebook paper, uploaded as a 'blueprint' to a 1989 Ford Bronco gallery. It appears to be a sheet-metal fabrication layout for a bent panel or bracket. The top view shows a flat pattern roughly 8 feet long with three bend lines, each marked 'UP' with a bend angle: 90°, 36°, and 54°. Spacing dimensions between the bend lines are noted as 7 1/4, 4 1/2", and 3 5/16, with an overall dimension of 20 1/16" on the left edge and an additional 5 1/4" dimension below the last bend. An arrow leads to a side 'Profile' view showing the resulting bent cross-section, annotated '1 R', '7" X 8'', and '3/16" R' (bend radii and stock size). Below the profile is a small detail of a roughly 4½" x 5" plate (dimensions 2", 3", 4½ shown) with a 1" diameter (1" Ø) hole on a centerline, noted '1" R' and '4½ X 5"'. A reader can learn the flat-pattern bend spacing, bend directions/angles, radii, and end-plate hole location for fabricating this part, though the sketch does not identify what vehicle or component it is for.
