Extrude and inset custom Node group

node_groups | Published | Normal Width

Take your extrusions to the next level with this Custom Extrude Node Group—a more powerful, flexible alternative to Blender’s built-in extrude node. It’s designed to make procedural modeling faster, easier, and way more functional.

Here’s what it adds on top of the default extrude:


  • Clean Thickness Control – Easily set uniform or variable thickness for extrusions.
  • Inset Support – Built-in inset functionality lets you add layered details without extra nodes.
  • Automatic Backface Filling – No more open geometry—this setup intelligently fills the backfaces with full control over how they're created.
  • Top Face Toggle – Decide whether to keep or delete the top face with a simple switch.
  • Custom Normals & Direction – Extrude along normals, custom vectors, or even animated directions.
  • Better Performance – Optimized for reusable setups and complex generators.


This isn’t just a replacement—it’s an upgrade. Whether you're building modular assets, procedural sci-fi panels, stylized architecture, or hard surface models, this node group gives you the control Blender’s default extrude is missing.

Fully procedural, non-destructive, and made to be dropped into any Geometry Nodes project. Once you use it, you won’t go back.
