Tapered Chamfer

I was trying to figure out a tapered chamfer and finally tried to loft, and had to cheat.
I had, and my 0.250 chamfer on one plane, and had to put a 0.001 chamfer on the plane where I wanted it to stop.
Is there a better way to do this?
Tnx
Pat

Perhaps something a bit easier:
Tapered Extrude(Draft Angle):Sketch your profile and use theExtrudefeature.In the Extrude dialog, enable theDraftoption (or set a Taper angle) to make the extrusion expand or contract as it moves.- Scotty
One other solution - if you want it to taper to absolute zero -https://cad.onshape.com/documents/6a927c4c065369aa796b6776/w/7dcf1d665cd68f45b08a2907/e/1c7555a136987c94aabaaf5a?renderMode=0&uiState=69663a3117e3a342a509cf43
Maybe there's some Custom FeatureScript that can do variable, tapered chamfers. Anyone know of such a thing?
And another. Split.
