BUILDING A CHAMFERBOX

Over the years many have as asked me to elaborate a bit on my visual example of creating a chamferbox shown here: http://deltronslair.com/chamferbox.html This approach is one of taking the data for a sphere and manipulating the data itself to create the chamferbox. First, to demostrate this in 2D, I have drawn a very simple circle on graph paper: |

![]() |

I choose a mid-point line to separate the circle in half. Note that in 3D, this dividing line would be a dividing plane. | |||||||||
![]() |

Now I translate all points on the right side of the line +4 units, and all points on the left side -4 units. | |||||||||
