Hi all.

Having a brain fart as too how to extrude this design all the way out to the construction line. (see .f3d file)
I want to piece to be one complete piece when laid on its side.
I can extrude it sideways all I want, but I need it to be the same thickness. Im sure it's something simple Im missing here.
Any help would be appreciated.

You are going to have to clarify what you want.  The part is the same thickness and it starts at the construction line so how can it go to this line.

Sorry but I think I figured it out.  I designed it on a vertical plane thus only allowing me to extrude sideways.  I since then redesigned it on a horizontal plane and extruded it up thus making it a fully enclosed piece. Same part just on a different plane (see attached). Now I can extrude it to 100+ mm.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
