In this quick vid I'll show you how I use the face transform tool in meshmixer to modify existing mesh data. It's not perfect, but might get you out of trouble one day!
Ways I use this tool:
Alter the width of a feature
Make text higher for more definition
Make indents deeper for more definition
Add thickness to a base or layer for more strength
Be sure to use facegroups to make selection of triangles easier, and subdivide using remesh if needed. stl files aren't designed to be easily edited!
