Chamfer tool set up

Anonymous

I am not certain which dimensions are dropped into each tool criteria.  This results in chamfers that don't look good.  Could you please help me set up one chamfer tool.  I can't find an example on youtube   tool diameter is .25"

The beauty of 90 degree chamfer tools: The length of cut is always half the diameter, assuming the tool comes to a point and not a large flat.

So, setup your tool like this:

Ah, the cutter distance was messing me up.  Used your information to work it backwards. Thank you so much.
