how to chamfer corners on hex?

So i'm trying to chamfer the corners of a hex material like in the  image attached.

I am wondering if there's an easier way to do this rather than sweeping a triangle around it? I am new to mastercam thus ignorant to how i would go about doing it.

My end goal is to show this chamfer on the solid to show it in a layout to draw dimensions on it. Everything i have tried seems to chamfer the whole edge instead of just the corners. Sorry if my wording is incorrect to what i am trying to accomplish, but the image should clarify what im trying to do. I havent seen this process in any of the tutorials via mastercam university

that's usually a turned angle not a chamfer
