Adding thickness

JUST move the mesh and connect the corners.
that's not really an offset though.
(for instance, try doing that technique to a cylinder) -
I am sure I was doing something wrong with the tool but as I pulled it out the shape it didn't happen uniformly.
-
What's wrong with at least putting up a screen shot?
Are you working on the entire hull or just half?
-
Whitout a file skp (V6) for more large audiance
How do you want that we can help efficientely?

I was working on the full Hull, I didn't save it thought no point as it had become a real mess.
-
Well next time just work on half of the hull. When you're finished, copy it and flip it to make the opposite side. Except in the case of proas and a few others, boat hulls are symmetrical along their centerline. It doesn't make any sense to do both sides at the same time doubling your work.

Hi,
Dear community I need help.
I wanted to give this half hull a thickness. After completion of JPP, the outer shell is no longer available. Why? Am I doing something wrong?Charly

Charly, are you saying the original surface is gone? If so, hit Tab before starting the Push/Pull operation and change the Finishing Options setting to keep the original faces.
-
Thanks for your help Dave. That with the TAB I had forgotten.

I've been copying and 'pasting in place' the original faces for the past few years!!!!! DOOOOHHHH!!!!
Thanks for this tip!
