Chamfer or Fillet a portion of an edge
Chamfer or Fillet a portion of an edge
(OP)
Is there a way to abruptly terminate a chamfer or fillet at some position along an edge? I have been splitting the part into two bodies chamfer the edge of one of them, and then combine the bodies back together. This works, but seems to be the hard way...and in some cases I can't split the part because previous features fail.

All, uncheck tangent propogation and select the edges manually.

Click the link above, Here is a simple pic of a chamfer along an edge but stops short at some point. I did this by splitting the body in two, and then chamfering one of them then combining them back together. I was hoping for an easier way.
Thanks MadMango, I have done what you suggest also

You also do a split line on the face to get two edges, then chamfer the edge.

You can adapt this method to all kinds of stuff, such as damming or stopping you fillet or chamfer.

1) create a plane at opposite angle from chamfer angle along the edge to be chamfered and from adjacent plane (in the case of the example I used the front plane and created a 135-deg plane for a 45-degree chamfer)
2) cut-extrude - sketch a rectangle, specify length of chamfer, add radius at end(s) of cut.
