Nominating a 'face' and then extracting it later

$

Hi all,

I’d like to create a primitive (box 90% of the time) and somehow identify one of the faces as the important one. This will be the ‘machining face’ to cut on a CNC router. (Think melamine in a kitchen cabinet)

The shape may get modified, resized, have cutouts through it, etc. Ultimately I want to do something like a ‘DupFaceBorder’ of that face only, including the border, and ideally pick up other geometry that is grouped on that face, keeping their layers when the new 2D geometry is created.

Of course in a real job there will be 50-100 panels, thus the need to script it.

Thanks in advance!

Adrian
