Steve said it best, 'Topic is King'. If you are comfortable in your knowledge of the topic, then you will do fine. The attendees are not there to judge the presenter, they want to learn from someone who has already been there. People do realize that the presenters are also users. The attendees primarily want to see how other people create models in an attempt to learn something that may help them in their daily work. Look at the presentation as an opertunity to remind people of a few features they may have forgotten about. Good Luck, Lenny Jeff,

Most have said here that getting the audience interested is important, and I agree, but you have to remember, 'The topic is King'. Discuss ways to make parts different, like my favorite new feature was the ability to mirror flanges. Talk about grouping feature and putting them a folder. Talk about naming these features. I hate nothing more that opening a model and seeing :Extrude1, Extrude2, Cut1 and Cut2, etc. Use this oportunity to not only teach sheet metal but to teach modeling in general. Have fun...
