Rhino modelling using SketchUp push pull technique

A friend of mine who has been a long time SketchUp user has recently asked me how to do push pull in Rhino. Here is my take:

  1. Execute the command SplitFace
    1. If you want to split by a line, simply draw it (activate Near or other OSnap recommended)
    2. You have the option to split by an existing (previously drawn) curve
  2. Execute the command ExtrudeSrf
    1. You can now push or pull, depending if you extrude outwards on inwards
    2. If you want to replicate the SketchUp mass modelling behaviour, activate the options Solid and Delete Input

This post would look nicer with some images, I will add them if I have time. In the meanwhile, keep Rhinoing!
