Yes, my solution is much too complex to be useful for making a
bevelled box.

But since he asked about the coordinates for the corners,
and since I was working on some macros that dealt with such
problems, I just tried to put them together in a way that solved
his problem

I agree that this is a much more efficient way to make a bevelled box.

Yes, I know.
