How to create a base that contours text I'd like to take a word and create a thin base that contours the letters and not have any through-holes. I've sketched an example of what I'm looking for.
I'd describe this as a 'skirt' in 3D-printing terms.
Just copy the text you have already, make it thinner(z) and larger(x,y), then convert it to mesh and delete the &quot;holes&quot; by hand. i think, there is not automatic tool for that.
