It would have been best if you had posted about this on the FreeCAD forum. Please read the bug submission guidelines (there used to be a link to this topic on the bug report form, not sure where it went): http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5236

Fillets are tricky in any CAD software, more so in FreeCAD but this is due to the third-party geometric modeling kernel it uses, Open Cascade. It does not deal well with such cases as multiple edges meeting on an inward vertex as in your model. In this regard, this cannot be fixed in FreeCAD because the FreeCAD team has no control over Open Cascade's failings. This would need to be reported upstream (on the Open Cascade bug tracker).

That being said, what is left to end users is to work around these problems.
1. Fillets should be applied last in the construction of a model, unless absolutely necessary. You applied fillets to your model early on which is not a good idea.
2. The boolean fusions in your model left many residual edges on faces which may cause problems with fillets. Before applying fillets, you should apply a Refine shape feature from the OpenSCAD workbench. There is a Refine shape tool in the Part menu, but it produces a new solid that is unlinked to prior operations.
3. Play with the order of fillet selection until you get what you want. It may require many tries, and more than one fillet operation to succeed.

I think the way you constructed your model may prevent success with the inner vertical fillets. In my experience it is preferable to cut material from a bigger block than to fuse material to a smaller one.

File named "Long T Fused Last fillet_normandc1.fcstd" was made by deleting all your fillets, fusing the primitives shapes together, applying an OpenSCAD Refine Shape feature, then applying fillets. It apparently succeeds, but Check geometry tool in the Part workbench shows it's invalid if the RunBOPCheck parameter (Edit --> Parameters/Preferences/Mod/Part/CheckGeometry) is set to true. If set to false, no error is detected.

File named "Long T Fused_PartDesign_normandc2.fcstd" shows an alternative workflow using the PartDesign workbench. The file is deemed valid by Check Geometry with RunBOPCheck set to either true or false.

I can reliably and in simple procedure reproduce this issue.

1: Open a new or already opened instance of FreeCAD
2: start a new document
3: generate a cube
4: resize the cube's dimensions
5: try to do any fillet or chamfering

If you leave out step 4, then the bug does not occur.

Thanks for the kickass program, and I hope this helps solve the "BRep_API: command not done" issue.

Works for me, I can follow the above procedure without problems...

In either case that's an OCC bug and can only be fixed by using a newer version.
