Problem with Fusion 360 Fillet

Miamicraft — Mon, 13 Apr 2020 16:35:55 GMT

I modeled a train driver for 3D printing and went through several iterations. Got close to final and needed fillets on spokes. I suppose the issue I am seeing is because the bodies are composed of multiple extrusions with differing draft angles. I recognize I could probably remodel part so this is not so much of an issue. My question is how do/can I fix the existing part without remodeling.

you are correct in your analysis of the underlying problem. The problem is the angle between these faces:

I'm recording a screencast with a different approach - coming soon

here is a screencast. You can see the problem caused by the angle at lower radius measurements for the fillet. One approach is to put the fillet farther back in the timeline, but I'm not sure what sort of geometry you want.

BTW, the original geometry is correct behavior for the fillet.
