Generate A Chamfer To An Edge inside a Bellville Washer
(OP)
I have an irregular shaped column that has had the top SWEEP cut.
The SWEEP cut was at an angle so the radii across the top constantly changes.
I have been unable to get a chamfer, either by the Chamfer or SWEEP CUT commands.

Also, it looks like your chamfer is coming all the way to the inner vertical surface--that's likely your reason for failure. I'd consider sweeping a cut around your part instead of using a chamfer like that.

RE: Generate A Chamfer To An Edge inside a Bellville Washer
Let me try to answer both remarks.
1.Yes, I get an error message to the effect that "could not build chamfer due to geometry conditions".
2. I have tried at different times ALL 4 outside edges and at other times ALL 4 inside corners but not all 8 at one time.
3. I need it to come all the way to the inner surface.
4. I tried what I thought was a Sweep. I am not sure it was as it did not work.
5. I have uploaded another picture that may or may not help to clear things up.
Thank you both for helping!

You can make a sweep work if you use the innermost edge as your path (create a composite curve or something for a sweep path) and a shape somewhat like the state of Nevada for a profile such that your vertical edge is coincident with your path and your angle downward forms your cut chamfer.
Should work well without the bumps seen in your latest image.
