AutoCAD Chamfer

The chamfer command in AutoCAD is used to create slanted edges.

We are required to select the two adjacent lines to create chamfer between them as shown in below image:

Here, 1 and 2 are the selected lines.

We can create the chamfer by specifying either the chamfer distance or angle.

Let's discuss in detail with two examples. Consider the below image:

Example 1:

To create chamfer by specifying the distance:

The steps are listed below:

1. Select Chamfer icon from the drop-down list of Fillet, as shown below:
   Or
   Type CHA or chamfer on the command line or command prompt and press Enter.
2. Type D or Distance on the command line.
3. Press Enter.
4. Specify first distance value and press Enter.
5. Specify second distance value and press Enter.
   Here, we have specified the first and second distance value as 2 and 3.
6. Click on the first line and the second line, as shown in the below image:
   

The chamfer will be created. We can verify the first and second distance values, as shown below:

We can either specify the endpoints of a chamfer on the lines.

Example 2:

To create chamfer by specifying the angle.

The steps are listed below:

1. Select Chamfer icon from the drop-down list of Fillet, as shown below:
   Or
   Type CHA or chamfer on the command line or command prompt and press Enter.
2. Type A or Angle on the command line.
3. Press Enter.
4. Specify the length of Chamfer on the first line and press Enter. Here, we have specified the length = 5.
5. Specify Angle value and press Enter.
6. Click on the first line and the second line, as shown in the below image:
   

The chamfer will be created.

We can verify the specified chamfer length, as shown below:

Multiple Chamfer

The Multiple chamfer command is used to apply chamfer multiple times with the same specified distance or angle. We are not required to use the chamfer command again and again.

To implement it, follow the steps:

1. Type Chamfer on the command line.
2. Press Enter.
3. Type M or multiple and press Enter.
4. Follow the same steps for the distance or angle
