Now its time to explain you something about Chamfer & Fillet,

| Chamfer Fillet |
The first figure you are watching is Chamfered Rectangle and next to it is Filleted Rectangle. Its is not for drawing purpose, it is used dur to some engineering fitness of the product, and you see the filleted rectangle is much more beautiful that the normal one. You now look towards your CPU, Printers or Lappy corners What do you find ? Fillet. I hope you can now guess the use of Fillet. Although use Chamfer is limited now a days.
