      I got a outside wall which needs some thickness. It's a bit of an odd shapen and I don't found a smart extrude tool which is smart enough to give it all thickness.

      This is the shape:

      I know it's a weird shape because not all angles are equal but curious what's the best way. The thickness has to go to the inner side of the model.

          That's the one I tried. But doesn't really a nice result.

            In that case, it may just be a matter of having to model it by push-pull offset each face then "manually" fixing all the connections. With such a shape it is certain no tool would know the exact decisions you wish to make on these intersections. You could do something with "follow me and keep" plugin to get a top portion, but clearly no profile will represent all portions of the wall.
