Guitar pick (by Maxmans)
Hello, I have students who want to print guitar picks on the printer; I can't get the entire pick to have a chamfer or bevel. If you have any solutions, I'd appreciate it. Best regards.

Maxmans,
Unfortunately there isn't a good way to add chamfers to those edges in solvespace. I know some of the dev team has been working on adding an "extrude along path" feature which would make it possible to do, but as of right now its not available. If you need to have the chamfers in there, what I've done in the past, is export the part (minus the chamfers) from solvespace as a .step, then bring it into FreeCAD and add the chamfers.

Using the latest development version from here:
https://github.com/solvespace/...file#via-automated-edge-builds
You could use the new "skewed" option for extrusions to sharpen a guitar pick. It's not optimal but may be worth a try.

Not easily and there are limitations, but it is possible, just. See attached
