through_all blows up

I'm creating a bunch of extrudes inside a feature using through_all bounds. It appears that the definition of "all" is about 2 * the current extent, and my features quickly hit the size of the universe (1Km) after which the extrudes fail.

I'm off to delete my extruded tools as I create them.... or use a fixed depth...

This is not a bug in my view, but it sure was a surprise :)

    Possibly has something to do with untrimmed surfaces.

    Have you considered using evBox3d to determine a more reasonable value for the extent, then using that to blind-terminate the extrude?

    @evan_2 Yeah, I'll do that if I need to in the future. Deleting my tools before creating new ones with thru_all is working fine for my current situation.
