Midplane Extrusion

This extrusion tool sweeps a 2D profile in a plane perpendicular to the WorkPlane to create a 3D object.

A bi-directional extrusion can be created which creates an equidistant above and below WorkPlane extrusion.

Closed profiles only can be extruded.

In the example below, the slot is selected for midplane extrusion.

In the illustration below, the midplane extrusion can be seen from the side and isometric view.
