i am trying to add to add a small fillet between the top and bottom parts and the central tube. I managed to add the fillet at one end, but not the other. I suspected that the problem related to the way I have modelled it so I revised it. Now I cannot fillet either end and get an external fillet and not the one I require ie. between the end pieces and the tube.
Thanks in advance for any help.

You will not be able to fillet separate parts. If you boolean all the parts together you should be able to add the fillets you want. A better way would be to use add for your extrudes instead of new whenever possible.
Thanks for your comment. I have now added the tube to the lower part using "add" but I still cannot add the fillet.

Or maybe I misunderstood where you want the fillet.

Just a cube with a 12mm hole I then added the tube section details to Sketch 1 on the datum top plane and extruded it using add as suggested. All good, but when I add 3 mm the fillet between the block and tube I also get an external fillet on the cube. How do I add the fillet just to the cube/tube intersection ?
Make sure you only select the edge you wish to fillet not a face.
Now I must sort out the actual model.
