And right here in this corner, I'm not really liking how this looks. It's kind of blending this way. It doesn't look bad but I'd really like to kind of extend that a little further. It really depends on how and when you fillet this shape. Grab this one right putter below, you can see it changes the other direction so now it's kind of bending out in this corner here, and if I reorder the other way it's bending it in. So you have the option of either bending in or bending out, but I really want to just smoothly flow from the triangular piece into the rectangular piece.
