Hello,

I’m trying to fillet the edges of a curved body but I keep getting a failure message.  
As I new user I can’t upload a video/image for reference.

Please advise.

Hi,  
Not easy without video or image.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply!  
I’m getting several messages:

- Operation failed because the resulting body wouldn’t be valid.
- Blends would overlap
- Range of blend on face is too large
- Can’t fix blend

I manage to do a little fillet but I’d like to make it 1/8” instead.  
File attached for reference.

Best,  
Sebastian
