Additional perimeters around holes

Hi,  I have a design were I want to reinforce a couple of through holes with a thicker wall.  I’ve tried a cylindrical modifier with more perimeters which works for the hole, but it also adds new perimeters at the outside edge of the modifier cylinder.  Anyway around that?

Thanks

RE: Additional perimeters around holes

If you stop the cylindrical modifier about 1 layer inside the model then you should get what you want. See this blog entry, there is a section called "Local strengthening of the model" that describes exactly what you want: https://blog.prusaprinters.org/model-with-prusaslicer-modifier-meshes-tutorial/
