      I am trying to offset a curved surface that I used sandbox to create. It is important that the curves are offset, not simply thickened. When I use joint push pull the geometry is, not quite right. Using the extrude option results in a usable solid, but is not truly offset, so it is unusable for my needs. Are there any alternatives to joint push pull that would allow me to offset a surface, or bend a sheet (thickened rectangle) over the face to create what I need?

      Thanks.

        It would make it a whole lot easier for us to help you if you upload the SKP file so we can see what you've got and what you're trying to do.
