Dear Raymond,

There is no automatic command to create such chamfer on a round bar for the moment (we plan to have one in the future).

But you can use the following workaround:

- create a polygonal contour/cut on the end of the round bar, which corresponds to the triangular shape of the cut

- use the "Advance copy" command and use the "Polar array" to copy the polygonal contour/cut several time around the center of the round bar.

See attached movie.

Regards

Philippe

Dear Raymond,

With Advance Steel 2014, the "Bevel cut" command (available in the Tool palette > Features) can be applied on a pipe and creates what you are looking for.
