Chamfer issue

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,

 

I created sketch of 3 similar leaves, extrured them and wanted to make the top face more sharp. I successed with chamfer function with the left and right leafes, but i have a problem with the middle one. I cannot chamfer  remaining 4 edges like on a screenshot. On the other leaves these edges were not a problem.

Could you please advise?

 

Thanks!

The ultimate culprit is your sketch geometry, which leaves a lot to be desired.

You used way too many spline points resulting in uneven curvature.

 

Someone might be able to tinker around with it enough to et "something" to work, but ultimately you should use splines with fewer spline points.

the problem is here:

If you zoom in, you can see the problem:

I was able to fix this by deleting that extra line, adding a coincident and a tangent:

However, this produces a distorted shape:

This is because the shape is too narrow in this area.  I spent a bit of time making it larger, with some success, but I'll leave the rest to you
