I have a check fixture for a stamped sheet metal part that I need to verify. It is designed to use a feeler gage around the edges to check the profile. I have CAD for the part but not the fixture. I do not have access to a 3d drawing program. What I would like to do is use the CAD to create points, offset them 3mm along their normal vector and then flip the vector so I can check the surface profile of the fixture using nominal part data. How would I go about this?

I prefer the thickness method. Some engineers have violent mental fits if they have to "figure" something out from a report.
