Hi Finema, sorry I didn't know that you were wanting to do a physical process like that.

That's an area called "developable surfaces" - they can be tricky to work with since a surface is only developable if it has certain geometric properties basically it has to be straight in one direction.

Rhino has some specialized tools for working with developable surfaces so if you need to do a lot of this type of thing that could help, but the method Karsten writes above should enable you to get what you need in MoI for this case.
