Bevelled edges are giving me the business
I made the object out of a cube that has been extruded a number of times. After that I applied a bevel to the outside faces of the object. As you can see there is a polygon edge clearly visible where two of the corners come together. I'd like the whole thing to appear flat with no joints.
I have a glass material applied here (which is what I want to use for the final product) which makes the problem visible. With a blinn material it doesn't show up. Any ideas what I'm missing here?

The problem is that the issue only occurs when I use the glass material, with everything else it looks fine. I've included a couple more renders to make things less confusing. One is the original render with the problems pointed out in yellow, the other is the model rendered in Lambert to show what it's supposed to look like. (The letters are a separate piece from the framing element) The last one is a wireframe version of roughly the same area of the first render to give you an idea of the geometry that's there.
Sorry about the confusion.
