drills a contour hole into a solid geometries frame

Description

This function can also be used to create fittings depending on a specific 3D-printer
For example if a drilling hole has been designed,
there is no need to increase the bore diameter on a SLS=Printer such as EOS formiga
but there is a need to increase the bore diameter on a FORM2+=Printer by 0.2mm
