This paper describes a method to represent an intermediate shape in rounding a solid shape as a non-manifold model and to manipulate the model uniformly by Euler operations. Fillet surfaces are generated step by step by a rolling ball method according to generation rules for edges and a data structure is represented by cycle structure extended from half-edge structure. By the method the original shape and the rounded shape can coexist and finally they are separated automatically.
