Forgive my probably dumb question as I am still learning the volume type data.

My end goal is to create a volume object from a pointcloud and export it as a solid for cad. I suspected this had to be easy but it might be harder than I anticipated.

What I did was feed the pointcloud to a TinGenerator and I got an acceptable surface, which I can apparently not symply extrude. This is all I want, an extruded surface with a thickness of 1 meter.

I found the BRepSolidBoundaryCreator.Beta on the hub but it needs python 2.7 which I didn't install last time apparently.

Do I want something impossible or am I missing the obvious?

Thanks for looking :-)
