build it using wooden panels rather than lines? do you mean add thickness to the piece?

if so, use the push/pull tool.

it is between the paint bucket and the move/copy button

draw the "panel" and then click it with the push/pull tool and move it a little bit in the direction you want thickness of the panel to be

type 3/4 then push enter

it should make your panel 3/4" assuming you are wanting to do that for 3/4" mdf
