andy c Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Chamfer in 3D seems to afford only 45 degree cuts (only one offset distance can be entered). Often I would like to have different x and y offsets. Is there any better workaround than making a cutting tool with my desired parameters? Quote Link to comment
Kaare Baekgaard Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Nope. If it is an outside corner of a complex object, the fastest way to make a cutting tool is usually be to make a chamfer with the smallest value, obtain the relevant curve with the extract tool, then change the value of the chamfer to the largest value and extract the second curve. Ungroup the chamfer, then create a loft between the two extracted curves and use the section tool to cut a new chamfer with the lofted surface. Quote Link to comment
