JS_top – increase wall height (+8mm) in OpenSCAD

This remix adds 8mm of extra wall height to the JS_top.stl by generating a collar from a 2D cross-section of the STL and extruding it upward.

This method does not split or Z-scale the STL (which often breaks cutouts and features). Instead, it keeps the original part and adds a clean extension where the walls are.

• JS_bottom.stl (original)
• extension.stl (mine free to modify)

Notes / limitations

This extends the walls (and anything present in the slice), but it does not intelligently “rebuild” features.

If your screw bosses / standoffs need to grow too, pick a z_profile where they appear in the slice (or extend them separately in CAD).
