Offset (BrepFace NOT "surface") both sides at once is available in SDK:

Brep thick = Brep.CreateFromOffsetFace(bFace, extrD, tol, bothsides, createsolid);

thus get this attached.

Of course there's the other way ... but I would strongly suggest to use the C#.

C'mon ... not a big deal. This is the easiest thing to do with code.

If you encounter any issues, sample the breps into a Rhino file in order to prepare the trad update (V3, that is).

best, Peter
