I have very little experience with FreeCAD, but I used Solid Works years ago. I still can't understand why with FreeCAD the chamfering or "smoothing" the edges breaks the model. I thought chamfering should be easy task if it uses SDF's or something like it for solid modelling, but somehow it makes unwanted holes.

No commercial CAD uses SDFs. Fillets and chamfers are a had problem particularly where multiple edges meet.

  ntopology uses SDFs. I believe its based on libfive.
