    If they can't unfold a part then they probably shouldn't be building dies in the first place. Is there a charge? Depends on the company but unless you're familiar with reliefs and general sheetmetal stamping/forming, you're model will probably need some work anyways.

    Give these guys a call: http://www.quick-way.com/metal-stamping.html

    They can answer any questions you might have in much more detail.
