## Fuse

shortcut `yf` edit mode

The Fuse tool is the center piece of MESHmachine's chamfer and fillet toolset. Its purpose is to create rounded surfaces from chamfers/flat bevels.

One of the benefits of this, is the ability to create variable fillets, as well as washouts.

### Selection

Poly strip - a row of polygons - along the chamfer.

The best way to select a chamfer is usually by loop selecting it - by default via `Alt + Select Mouse`, while pointing at an sweep edge of the chamfer.

The sequence of the chamfer polygons determine the direction of the fuse surface. If Fuse is run on a single polygon, the direction will be determined by edge length, but can can also be reversed in the redo/tool properties panel.
