HI everyone.
This is my first post here. Been lurking and FreeCADing for a while. So far managed not to break stuff. I'm still a n00bly beginner though.
I seem to have broken my fillet and chamfer tools??
I made some fishing lures to 3d print. Starting with a rectangle then pocketing it to get a taper at one end, then did some fillets etc and it was all good.
Got exactly what I wanted.
Then I tried to repeat the process with some different dimensions and now it wont fillet or chamfer the way it did.
Thought it could be my dimensions so tried to repeat the original sucsessful design. Now that wont work either.
Any ideas?
Here is my version details

I'm a bit of a linux dummy so something is probably out of date. Have a different version on my laptop and I can't do much with it so reluctant to make changes. This version works for me so hoping to stick with it till I get better at freecad....
The 2 files attached with MK1 titles are the ones that worked.
The base is one of the attempts that wont fillet. Every time I try it comes up with errors on the fillet and makes the unchanged part invisible. Like in the attached badfillet file, which is just the base file with broken fillets applied.
I have tried a wide range of fillet radius values. It just wont work again. Even if I try to duplicate the original working model. Having some success with chamfers but they seem to be on the blink too.
Did I do something different in my sketches that’s stopping it working? I feel like I got more efficient with constraints with every new model. Maybe I did something that doesn't get along with the fillet tool?
Or have I somehow broken something?
Tried rebooting computer etc etc. Still wont work. I'm all out of obvious stiff to try.
