Turning Chamfer / Parting Anyone have a good work around?

I see that it has been pointed out that parting with a chamfer is not an option at this time. Hopefully this gets added as its a common task for most turning work.

 

I tried to:

Single groove (for clearance) 

Chamfer (no chamfer modeled)

Part

 

Worked OK... but the chamfer is poor. I can only get it to go "up" in X rather than down the part like I would program by hand.

Also when extending the chamfer it adds to both ends of the feed.

 

Messy. 

Anyone have a better work around while waiting for a canned fix?

 

 

Thanks!
