      Problem: Fredo Corner defaults all chamfers on 3d objects (two surfaces meeting at an edge) to a 45 degree angle. Anyone know how to change this to a 25 degree or what tool can be helpful for 3d objects.

      (1001 bit tools allows for 2d control of lenght but not angle between objects/lines )

      thank you !!!

                  Just click on it for input a distance or a % on the numeric key board
                  will be the same for the Z axe
                  (for Fredo : will be fine if we can move it with mouse! πŸ˜‰

                  Impossible to answer without an skp file (save as V6)

                    For chamfer to work on corners with 3 edges or more (e.g. a true corner), the profile needs to be symmetrical.

                    If this is just to chamfer borders of a shape, then this is more a kind of followMe, and whether with the native tool or with Profile Builder by Whaat, you should make it with no difficulty.
