You can also chamfer 3D solids and surfaces. If you select a mesh to chamfer,
you can choose to convert it to a solid or surface before completing the
operation.

First Line
Specifies the first of two edges required to define a 2D chamfer, or the edge
of a 3D solid to chamfer.
If you select lines or polylines, their lengths adjust to accommodate the
chamfer line. You can hold down Shift while selecting the objects to override
the current chamfer distances with a value of 0.
If the selected objects are line segments of a 2D polyline, they must be adjacent
or separated by no more than one segment. If they're separated by another
polyline segment, CHAMFER deletes the segment that separates them and
replaces it with the chamfer.
If you select an edge on a 3D solid, you must indicate which one of the two
surfaces adjacent to the edge is the base surface.
Enter Surface Selection Option Entering o or pressing Enter sets the selected
surface as the base surface. Entering n selects either of the two surfaces adjacent
to the selected edge.
After you select the base surface and the chamfer distances, select the edges
of the base surface to chamfer. You can select edges individually or all the
edges at once.
Edge Selects an individual edge to chamfer.
