      Zillions ? πŸ˜„
      I have 323 entities for the surface and less 80 segments as perimeter! 😲

      But Ok with Smooth at the maximum I obtain just one edge alone to close by hand πŸ˜‰
      (not a big deal - the only difficulty is to find it! )

      But this will be the same with a bigger surface more sinuous on the edges?
      Here I have 2 big straigth lines edges with only 2 arc circles toward inner!

      If I have 100 edges to close ? πŸ˜‰

      And after with your method i must make several intersections (just one Push Pull for natural intersection is not sufficient (but not a big deal again πŸ˜„

        Another way.

        I also thought there was no need to act on all the faces. Here is a complex model. Skirt made with TIG's extrude-edges-by-vector-to-object EEbyVTO. Only problem I have trouble getting all the edges to go all the way to the face (I wonder if there's a lack of technique on my part). So I then pull the face up and intersect with model. (This method seems to choke on an even more complex model, but it might work.)
